New Jawbone Bluetooth Headset

The new Jawbone is slicker, lighter, and more comfortable to wear, all the while retaining the two best virtues of the original: amazing noise suppression and great sound quality. The Noise Assassination technology actually works - it cancels out noise from the outside

Jawbone's NoiseAssassin offers a patented Voice Activity Sensor (VAS). The Jawbone headset uses the VAS to distinguish the sound of your voice from ambient noise and then uses proprietary Digital Signal Processing (DSP) algorithms to subtract the noise so only the sound of your voice comes through.

NoiseAssassin was originally developed by Aliph for DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency), which creates and delivers technology for the U.S. military.

It's 50 percent smaller than the original Jawbone and features noise-elimination technology that promises better voice quality. The new headset is available exclusively at AT&T retail stores and at Jawbone.com.

Jawbone comes in matte black, with silver and gold versions planned. So it'll come out just like an earring. Talk about being fashion conscious!

The new Jawbone is designed to look and feel like an accessory along the lines of jewelry and eyewear. It offers a customized fit with three sizes of earbuds and four ear loops that can be worn on either ear -- two sizes of soft, stitched leather ear loops and two sizes of slim ear loops, ideal for use with eyeglasses according to NewsFactor.com

Apparently the only down-side is that it has poor battery life. But other than that it's being called an essential lifestyle accessory. It sells for $129.99 in matte black. Silver and rose-gold colors will soon be added.
