The future will sound better and will surely look a whole lot nicer than before if you plan to buy yourself one of the recently launched Jawbone Bluetooth Headset.

The thing separating this headset from everything else available on the market at the moment is the fact that you will be one of the first people to experience crystal clear calls without any kind of ambient noise due to the integrated Noise Shield technology that, as the name says, acts as a protective barrier between your ear and the environmental noises, noises that could disturb you while you're talking on your cellphone using your newly acquired Bluetooth headset.

You won't only get functionality because when you'll get your hands on this piece of device, you will be holding one of the award winning designs by Yves B?har, a design that will surely make you feel a lot more comfortable compared to other BT headsets available out there and will also offer a plus of functionality and simplicity.

Who is behind the highly acclaimed noise cancellation available on the Jawbone? A technology meant to enhance telecommunications in the most inhospitable environments on Earth, a technology developed by Aliph for The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, in one word DARPA.

It functions so well due to an extremely intelligent sensor system and a software that automatically adjusts the parameters of the headset up to 500 times per second, this being done with the help of the info gathered by the sensors so you can enjoy a high quality audio experience.

This process consists of three different steps. In the first one, Jawbone will identify and isolate the user's speech, in the second it will eliminate all the unwanted noises in the background so the user will be heard clearly on the other end and, in the third, the headset will boost the frequencies that enable the voice to be heard over the background noise so the sound heard by the other party will automatically be enhanced.

The Jawbone weighs only 14 grams, is wearable on either ears and its ear loops are available in four different sizes and shapes so the owner will experience a customized fit and at the same time, a very high stability on the ear.

Winner of the International CES Innovations Design and Engineering Award and the iF Product Design Award, the Jawbone Bluetooth Headset is available in select Cingular Wireless retail stores across USA, is compatible with all the Bluetooth enabled devices and has a price tag of 119.99 $, a fair price for a headset that will make you experience mobile calls on a whole new level of mobility and clearness.
