 Jawbone Review July 31, 2008
After viewing the videos of the product in action on the website, I had to get one of these! I always have people complaining that they can't hear me or they hear noise while I'm driving, using a conventional bluetooth headset.
After finally getting my Jawbone and charging it up, I immediately put it in my ear and made a call while driving. I hadn't even put in one of the included earloop. I was able to just pop it into my ear with one of the included ear buds.
While in my car, I turned up the music and opened all the windows, and sure enough, the person I was speaking to said they could hear everything in the background. I turned the noise canceling circuit on and off a few time just to be sure, but no change. My heart sank! I was so disappointed!
I decided to go home and sit down and read the instruction manual to see if there was something I was doing wrong. Low and behold, there is a small round white piece at the end of the Jawbone that must be touching your jaw at all times or the noise canceling circuit will not work. I had to install one of the ear loops to make sure it did. I normally don't like the ear loops because they cause my ear to hurt after a while. So I sacrificed and put the loop in and tested again. Urika! it worked!
I was even mowing the lawn and the person I was speaking to heard me clearly over the lawn mower.
The only drawback I have experienced was in the car with the windows open. I do notice when the wind directly hits the Jawbone, the person I'm speaking to complains they can't hear me over the wind noise, but only when the wind directly hit the Jawbone. With the sunroof, and all other windows open, except my driver window, I get no complaints.
Overall, I am satisfied with the Jawbone. I paid the equivalent amount of money for just a regular bluetooth headset just a year and a half ago. If I would have known about the Jawbone coming out, I would have saved my money!
 Jawbone the best so far, but not perfect July 31, 2008
We purchased the Jawbone to replace Motorola HS850 bluetooth headsets, as we found the HS850's to have volume problems on both ends. We compared the Jawbone to the BlueAnt Z9. We found each unit had pros and cons, but the Jawbone was the best of the bunch.
It had the best sound quality, both for others to hear what was said, and to hear what others said. It was quite easy to use and VERY comfortable to wear.
The one drawback we found is that sometimes at the beginning of a call the headset would not work. Specifically, we could dial from the headset via voice dialing, or we could pick up a call via the headset, but the voice would be on the hand set. The only solution that we found when that happened, was to turn off the Jawbone unit and turn it back on. In that reguard, the HS850 had the best operation.
 piece of junk July 30, 2008
This item falls apart quickly. It could have been that the OEM product that I purchased was used but it is a cheap POS for what you pay. A much better alternative that is similar in sound quality is the plantronics 520.

Aliph Jawbone Bluetooth Headset (Grey) easy to use, all i had to do was charge the bluetooth and pair it with my phone
 Jawbone July 28, 2008
I could never get this to feel comfortable to wear in my ear no matter which combination I used. Was not too impressed with the sound quality either. So I sent it back and bought a Blueant visor mounted unit for the car and went back to my trusty Moto 850 earpiece.
