Aliph Jawbone Bluetooth Headset for Cingular Wireless

Aliph unveiled the Jawbone Bluetooth headset, apparently the first adaptive headset with Noise Shield technology. The sheilding technology ensures that background noises are eliminated when you are on a call.

The new design by Yves Behar gives it a comfortable fit. Jawbone's noise shield technology is a direct application of the DARPA project developed by Aliph. It identifies and isolates your speech, while at the same time subtract unwanted audio.

Weighing in at just 14 grams, Jawbone offers a perforated shield that easily curves to match the outline of your face, while earloops in four different sizes and shapes help in a customized comfort fit.

Priced at US $119.99, the Jawbone Bluetooth headset is now available exclusively from Cingular Wireless for your Bluetooth-enabled cell phone.

  • "Jawbone is the first Bluetooth headset that adjusts and optimizes both incoming and outgoing sound so you can conquer the problems of a noisy, unpredictable world," said David Christopher, Vice President, Product Management, Cingular Wireless. "Today's consumers may often find themselves having conversations in less than ideal environments. With Jawbone, our customers can now make phone calls comfortably in high-traffic, high noise locations. We are pleased to be the first wireless carrier worldwide to bring this unique, best-in-class product to market."

    "With Jawbone, we set out to transform a technology product into a personal accessory," said Yves Behar, who joined Aliph as vice president and creative director while continuing to lead fuseproject, the San Francisco-based design studio he founded. "Jawbone's ergonomic and clean design enhances all aspects of the product experience: visual, tactile and auditory."
