Tiny new Jawbone packs more punch

Aliph have announced the new Jawbone, a fantastic Bluetooth headset that launched with the iPhone.  This new model is just half the size but packs 10 times the noise cancelling power of the original.  This little puppy comes with “military-grade” noise cancelling, handy for when you’re hammering your way around the M25!

According to Aliph the Jawbone “literally feels your speech” with its Voice Activation Sensor and Digital Signal Processing and the rather militarily named “VoiceAssassin” technology.  Aliph originally developed this stuff for the US military, so you know if it’s good enough to let people hear you commanding your troops whilst being shot at, you can be pretty sure you’ll be ok using it with the background noise of even a busy pub!  Not sure how well my headset compares!

Here are the specs:

Price: $129.99
Weight: 10 grams
Talk Time: Over 4 hours
Standby Time: Over 8 days
Range: Up to 33 feet (10 meters)
Charge: 80% charge in 35 minutes, 100% charge in < 1 hour
Colors: Black / Silver / Rose Gold
Supports Bluetooth® 1.1, 1.2, and 2.0

It’s not available in the UK yet, but when it is you can bet we’ll be all over one of these for review!
