GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR [Posted on 2008-08-07]
I bought the Jawbone thinking this is going to be so cool, cool it wasn't. First, the ear pieces that came with it don't help at all and appears to me they are almost the same. They fell off my ear so many times. It looks cool to wear I will say that much and the noise shield does work with the radio on NOT with wind though. Also, the stactic is bad don't walk anywhere without your cell cause the jawbone will lose the contact or make so much static you will want to throw it away, just return as I did. I did give it a one star only because I like the looks of it. I do wonder if the new one out is any better, but not worth my time to buy and find out.

I read the reviews, mostly positive and bought one. I was using a motorola E815 verizon cdma phone. The first one I got the microphone was defective. The outgoing audio was nothing but static. The incoming audio was scratchy. Thanks to Amazon's return policy is was very easy to exchange. The next one I got worked fair but not great. There was lots of static and a seemingly weak signal even though the phone was in my pocket.
I recently switched to an i-phone (new 3G). The pairing with the jaw bone was easy. The performance with the i-phone was better. So I think the performance may vary depending on the phone.
Now for the earpiece. It comes with 4 detachable ear loops and several in the ear inserts to customize your own fit for the left or right ear. If you keep the headset in your pocket or purse, there is a good chance the metal ear loop will get bent. The metal is very brittle, if you try to bend it back to the proper position it will break at the point where it inserts into the headset. The ear insert can also come off and get lost.
So while the performance was better, even acceptable with the i-phone. The custom fitting parts which must be used are fragile. An ear loop made with a more durable product would be acceptable. When you figure out which ear insert you like maybe a little glue to fix it place would be good.
For those of you thinking green... The packaging was excessive. A large hard plastic box with plastic inserts and small cardboard boxes inside.
With a better earpiece and ear insert and a compatible phone I would give it 4 stars. I bought a red one to find it easier when put in a bag or backpack.
Awful [Posted on 2008-08-18]
What a piece of junk. It's true I can hear well through it and that others say they can hear me well through it, but where it absolutely fails is in voice recognition with my Motorola Razr. I press the button and say, for instance, "Call Pat Moore" and it comes back with "Did you say, 'Call Yee Dental Center'?" (and then two other choices, none of which sound ANYTHING like Pat Moore). It's absolutely useless as a hands-free dial device in the car (required by law now in California). I hate it. I've tried it for a month and I'm throwing it away it's so bad. Don't waste your hard-earned money on this. (It also looks like cheap plastic in person, not like it looks in online pictures, and worse still, it seems really flimsy. Worst of all, there's no cigarette lighter charger for the car, which is the only place I use this, so I have to bring it in and charge it. That's just plain stupid.)
Terrible false advertising [Posted on 2008-08-21]
I had seen the ads for the Jawbone in Sky Mall magazine. (A magazine I used to trust) I bought it 32 days ago and after the first 3 weeks rarely even bothered to take it out of my briefcase. It was painful to wear and no matter how I attempted to adjust it it flopped around and I couldn't possible keep the earpiece against my cheek, like you are supposed to. When I placed any call I quickly found out that I couldn't be heard over the slightest breeze or even the air conditioner in my car! The buttons are extremely hard to use. Three or four times I received calls and when I pressed the button I got an ear full of nothing but loud static, and when I tried to turn off the unit so I could return the missed call the unit wouldn't shut off! I had to wait 2 or three minutes before I could even return the missed call! You can't get your money back, they will only replace it with another shoddy product. So go with the Plantronics. It's the one that I accidently broke, and I really liked it. Final advice DON'T BUY THIS PRODUCT!
