Jawbone Bluetooth Headset

Wow, David linked me this earlier today morning, and I've gotta say, it looks AWESOME! From Wikipedia:

Jawbone is an adaptive Bluetooth headset designed for mobile communications use. Originally launched by Aliph in 2004, it is the first such headset to integrate Noise Shield, a military-grade technology developed for DARPA (The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) to enhance communications in hostile and rugged environments by reducing background noise. In partnership with acclaimed product designer Yves Behar of Fuseproject, Aliph launched the most recent iteration of their Jawbone headset in late 2006.


Military grade technology, sounds pretty shibby. The demos sound almost TOO good that I really do wonder if they've been tampered. Reviews on the web make it seem that it really does a great job at reducing the background noise. One problem that seems to appear on all reviews is poor blocking of noise caused by wind. Poor blocking is better than no blocking though right? I'm debating whether or not I should buy one..but now I want one =P Make sure to check out their website for pics and the demos!
