Review: V2.0 is definitely an improvement over V1.0 with one glaring deficiency: the button used for starting/ending calls is a hair trigger. If you want to adjust the fit of the headset while in use, chances are you're going to inadvertently disconnct your call.
Other than that, the audio quality on both the sending and receiving ends is markedly better. I found zero static when using it with my Blackberry and the other end said it sounded very clear. The "NoiseAssasin" (noise reduction) seemed to work more consistantly than on the older version.
The new earloop is also a step in the right direction, being more comfortable and less complex that the previous version's strange design. One problem might be the length of the sliding portion of the loop as even the XL size seemed not to be long enough for a comfortable. fit. However this is a minor point as this unit fits well in the ear and makes the need for the loop totally optional.
All in all, the Jawbone 2 is an excellent piece of kit and definitely beats the competition.
Pros: -Excellent audio quality
-Great noise reduction technology
-Considerably smaller and less noticeable than previous model
-Can be used with or without ear loop
Cons: Hang-up button is easy to inadvertently activate
-Ear loop could be bigger
Score: 8/10
