Slimmer, Hotter Aliph Jawbone 2 Bluetooth Headset Gets FCC'd

Aliph's Jawbone is one of the least obnoxious, if a squee bulkier, Bluetooth headsets out there. Its hotter younger sister just popped up on the FCC, and looks to be under two cm wide, losing a fair bit of the original Jawbone's girth. Even though the earclip's not in this shot, the manual shows that it's still got one, though. The FCC unveil means something more official should be heading our way soon, so sit tight for more info.

Limited Edition Jawbone Headsets Look Incredible

The default Aliph Jawbone Bluetooth headsets already look quite stylish for a Bluetooth headset, but these Yves Behar-created limited edition sets beat his originals by quite a bit. The white, brown and black headsets are smooth, unlike the pock-marked original design, and represent trash talk, sweet talk and dirty talk, respectively. We can't quite make out what the picture for sweet talk is supposed to be, but the dirty and trash talk are obvious. If we didn't already own a Jawbone for our in-the-car conversations, we'd nab one of these ASAP. [Fuse Project via Josh Spear via Yanko]

Jawbone Short Features Bikinis, Bros and Maybe a Headset or Something

Aliph is pushing its fancy-schmancy Jawbone Bluetooth headset with a series of web shorts centered around the product, including the above one, entitled "Boo Boo." It involves a sexy lady in a bikini, three really annoying dudes and a surprise ending that's pretty satisfying. I'm not going to be running out and buying any gadgets because of it, but if you're looking for a nice way to distract yourself from the painful drudgery of your day-to-day existence for a few minutes, you could do a lot worse.

iPhone Bluetooth Does Nothing But Calls

Remember way back in 2004, when Verizon Wireless introduced Motorola's V710 with "crippled" Bluetooth? Headset pairing worked, but there were no file-transfer options and other extended features. People literally sued in protest. Well, as you probably know, the scales of justice never tipped. In the past three years, most Bluetooth phones sold by carriers in the US have been "crippled" in that sense, including the iPhone:
• It can't transfer files to a PC, or appear on a desktop for drag-and-drop file juggling.
• It can't send a photo to a Bluetooth printer.
• It can't stream audio via Bluetooth to a compatible speaker system or headset. (Video is out of the question.)
However, it can link with any Bluetooth headset on the market, including the Apple iPhone Bluetooth Headset that will soon be at an Apple Store near you. Now that you're depressed about its lack of capability, want to hear what's cool? More »

Latest by Ondemon: Perhaps the real question behind this thread is: "WHY is the Bluetooth on the iPhone SO crippled?" Scan the first page of the voluminous Legal disclaimer (Settings>About>Legal) on the iPhone and it lists the Bluetooth license as BlueMagic from Open more »

Aliph Jawbone Gallery: Sexy AND Functional

It's not every day that a headset looks good (definitely) and works well (supposedly). The Jawbone Bluetooth headset from Aliph, available now from Cingular for $120, looks better than most BT headsets we've used over the years. As for how well it works—its noise cancellation and vibration detection functions most notably—that'll have to wait for the review. More »

BengalBoys Grease the Lens, Make a Call - JawBone Headset

I'll admit one thing. The BengalBoys sure know their presentation, although this set of images/reviews is a bit over-the-top. First off, they have their huge "DON'T STEAL ME" banner over everything—fair enough. Then they have the lens so greased that it looks like Penthouse circa-1975 and you can't even tell what they're reviewing. More »
