Celebrating the new jawbone next to the post about the devastation in Haiti. Now there’s quite a juxtaposition. I’ve been enamoured with this site and it’s cool finds for quite some time but these two posts have put it all in perspective; time to give up being enthralled by a device with customizable voices and pay more attention to actual voices. Why, besides the potential for profit, do toys for twenty somethings ( like the ones in the next post ) even exist? A dieu joshspearcom, for me, you are simply no longer relevant. The rest of you will see it soon enough.

Thank you for your readership and taking time to comment. My parents taught me long ago never to doubt other people’s good intentions. If there is room in the world for those who choose vodka and those who choose vitamins, then there must be room for those who choose both. While we celebrate good design, great art and new technology, we are equally saddened by those who suffer in the world, too, and we do not forget them. We will continue to bring equal attention to the very wide scope of human experience, at both extremes, and let readers make up their minds about priorities.

Thanks for taking the time to comment…

Good job not letting that guy sink your boat Thank you for letting your readers make up their own minds about priorities and trusting that we can do our best with it all, the light and the dark.

I just got my hands on the Jawbone Prime actually (my first dabble into bluetooth headsets!). There aren’t too many places that sell them in the UK anymore so I went through these guys. I have to say it’s a pretty nice piece of kit. The design is pretty classy and I love the noise cancellation.

I might upgrade to the Icon at some point though, as my daughter has her eye on this one lol… I’m wondering if it really is a step up from the Prime or if I should just stick to what I know…
