 Of no value to the bearded among us Nov 05, 2008
Like it's predecessor, The Aliph Jawbone 1, this sleeker and lighter version has the same essential flaws. 1) It is simply not comfortable to wear and 2) because the technology was developed by clean shaven men (or women) the device must come in contact with the user's cheek to achieve best results. A man with a beard has something on his face that does not permit that direct contact - whiskers. The difference is appreciable, rendering this highly rated device all-but-useless for any man with a beard.
For a mere $20., the Samsung WEP200 is a far better and more adaptive device for day-to-day use.

 Still the best noise cancelling, but a few minor irritations Nov 02, 2008
General Summary: I love this headset. Better than any of the MANY other headsets I have - even those costing more!
I also own the original Jawbone, so my thoughts are mostly a comparison between the two. For the most part, the Jawbone II makes an almost perfect headset almost "perfecter". No wireless headset cancels background noise better. Those of you that don't use a jawbone - you have no idea how annoying it is to talk to you with all the noise around you... The jawbone should be required so other people can hear you!
In terms of sound, the new model handles wind better, so it's better outside (although not in a high wind or with the convertible top down...)
The best part of the new Jawbone II is how light and small it is. The original was just a bit bulky and heavy, so my ear would get sore after a long call. It also had a very hard to use ear loop system.
That's where the big improvement is for the JB-II. It's so light you forget you have it on. The simplified earloop is much better, as well. Unfortunately they don't include extras so be careful when bending it to make adjustments! If you break the earloop, you are out of luck until you can order more...
What I don't like: The main button is too easy to push and goes from edge to edge. Every time I try to adjust it while on a call, I hang the phone up person I'm talking to. That drives me crazy, especially since it's so light that it is harder to keep snugly in place.
And that's my other complaint. The new earloop and speaker buds don't hold it on my head as well. If it comes loose, I hang up the call if I try to adjust it. Once I finally got it to fit, I still found the need to adjust it during calls and then hanging up when I touched it.
I've even gone to using the earloops from my original jawbone, which helped some. I finally got the JB-II loops to fit, I've really enjoyed using it.
Other than holding it on my face and the button being too sensitive, this thing is amazing and I highly recommend it.

 Jawbone II is a serious step down from the original Jawbone Oct 14, 2008
This smaller, sleaker Jawbone II is a real disappointmnet!! All of the issues that many of the reviews have mentioned I experienced in my first five minutes using this earpiece. The earpiece does not fit on the ear, when you adjust it, the earpiece turns off because of the poor placement of the on/off switch (which is HIDDEN too). The JBII has to be touching your cheek for callers to hear you, otherwise, you fade out which happened to me constantly. If you adjust it, it'll shut off.
My advice - DON'T BUY THE JAWBONE II. It's a waste of money!!! I bought a plantronics which works great.

Awful Company! Oct 12, 2008
DON'T FALL FOR THIS POORLY MADE GIMMICK by ALIPH, WITH ITS UNCONCERNED CUSTOMER SERVICE. The Jawbone is, by far, the worst headset I have ever come across! Aliph seems more about marketing than substance. I wish I could reassign the rating and give one-eighth star. This company is bad news!
I barely got to use the Jawbone three times before the earplug into which the earhook slides came loose, exposing the wires. I have cases for all my headsets to protect them and gingerly care for them.
The Jawbone came apart just before the warranty ran out, therefore my letter reached Aliph after the warranty expiration date so Aliph has refused to replace the headset - THAT WAS USED NO MORE THAN 3 TIMES BEFORE COMING APART!
Although the Jawbones are highly marketed, there are innumerable customer complaints over the Internet about how poorly built these headsets are. Aliph seems to turn a deaf ear and seems to feel it is their due to gimmick poorly designed, ill-built, over-priced dross.
The way Aliph markets the Jawbone and at the price, no one should have to tweak one thing to make the headset work or fit.
I wish I had known the Jawbone was all utter hype before getting fleeced by Aliph for $149.50! This earplug is extremely difficult to get on the ear. I had to fight with my Verizon UT6700 to get it working and most of all the sound was little better than the UT6700, which is disastrous!
I have the Plantronics Voyager, as well as several other headsets by BlueAnt, Jabra, and Motorola. I bought the Plantronics 925 and received a BlueAnt V1 after the Jawbone dispatched itself. The Plantronics Voyager 510 Bluetooth Headset with Multipoint Technology, Plantronics Discovery 925 Bluetooth Headset (Black), the Jabra are much better quality head sets and work distinctly better. I haven't tried the BlueAnt V1 Voice-Controlled Bluetooth Headset (Silver) yet. None of the headsets are any where near the "SHABBY JAWBONE" Category! Aliph owns that one!
Don't fall for the name and the back and don't get RIPPED OFF!

All hype, no substance Oct 07, 2008
I have several Bluetooths and I am a heavy user. I waited for this unit to be released because the former model was to big. Everyone I spoke with using this unit complained of feedback and echo. If you adjust it while it is on your ear, it will disconnect if it looses contact with your face. The volume isn't as loud as other units I use.
For this price it needs to have multi-point as well.
I am very disappointed.
