    The 3 cost twice as much. Does not mean better buy, because it is the latest.

    Holy cow, my cell phone doesn't get as much noise at some of these bluetooth headsets and it didn't cost $100! WTF

    The Jawbone 2 is kind of neat... I wanted to truly test it out so I turned on the noise
    Knock Knock.
    Who's there?
    Bacon.
    Bacon who?
    and walked next to my dryer. The person on the other end of the line said they couldnt hear a the dryer (they did hear some clicking) and I sounded great.

    I then tried my old 20 buck moto headset and they hung up on me.


    I guess the lesson is only test on headset per phonecall with a friend on the line.

    You know you can buy one and have all colors. I like the Coffee Talk color is particularly attractive. You can buy the faceplate online and exchange it.

    The noise cancellation technique is state of the art. So far the only competitor is the Motorola XH1 Bone Conduction.

    #9? Why does it like Windows ME? How can you compare Jawbone 2 such a good product to something crappy as ME??

    The first verson while much bulkier still works better.

    My v3 drops Bluetooth quite a bit and the sound quality is not as good as the original.

    I wish it were not so.

    Good price for it. Was looking at it just yesterday actually. I bought the plantronics voyager pro though. It's not sexy, but it works without screwing with it.

    After the first jawbone, I got a bit disenchanted. The buttons are hidden. You have to push down hard if you can find the buttons while driving/working/etc. You have to make sure the rubber thing is held against your jaw or else it don't work. It ain't very comfortable jamming a rubber grommet in your ear.

    This new version should be more comfortable, but you still have jam the thing into your face constantly to make sure the jaw piece sticks.

    When they come out with a earpiece that has buttons that you can feel, comfort like the one above, and a laser like they use for measuring sidewalls and stud distances instead of a rubber french tickler, then I'll go for it. Until then, I'm gonna use the call center looking voyager pro so I don't die in a fiery crash trying to turn the fking volume up while repeatedly jamming it into my ear.

    agreed. Buttons stink. Especially that there is no volume rocker switch. But overall it's an amazing headset. Works great in my convertible
