The Pros:Jawbone Active Dynamic Range Management - normalizes all volumes around your pre-selected preferences. Very small and lightweight - the tiniest Jawbone to date. Environmentally friendly packaging - 100% recyclable, compact.

#aliph_jawbone_icon I was an original jawbone user on a daily basis for the past 2 years and decided it was time to upgrade. The jawbone icon meets all of my expectations and more. It's lightweight, stylish and mod able. I enjoy the choice of voices and software available through Aliph. Check for specials on shipping and if you are a Twitter or Facebook user you can find a terrific deal out there. This one's a keeper.
