Jawbone 2: Not Headset, Rather Earwear

After passing the FCC’s hurdle, the Jawbone 2 is finally here! The maker of the device, Aliph doesn’t call it a headset, rather an earwear.

Stylish as ever, the new Jawbone is 50% smaller than the original award-winning Jawbone, and features noise elimination technology (NoiseAssassin) that provides even better voice quality than the original, and in a smaller, more ergonomic package.

Jawbone’s NoiseAssassin technology literally feels your speech with its patented Voice Activity Sensor (VAS). The Jawbone headset uses the VAS to distinguish the sound of your voice from ambient noise with incredible accuracy and then uses proprietary Digital Signal Processing (DSP) algorithms to subtract the noise so only the sound of your voice comes through.

The Jawbone 2 is available for $129.99 at AT&T retail stores, and at www.jawbone.com.
