bluetooth with military technology!

ok, last friday i came a across a very cool Bluetooth ear peace.
ok, military uses some (i am not very technical with that yet) technology that is used in theirs communication devices.
the way it was explained to me, the bluetooth device translates the jar movement instead of transferring the sound of the voice and that is to eliminate any noise in communication between shoulders during combat situations.

ok, in a the real world this is what happens.
if you are in the night club, you know how it is hard for the person on the other end to hear what you are saying because of the loud music? well, with this bluetooth, he or she will not be hearing anything but you voice. all other sounds will be eliminated.

or for those who drive convertibles, when you are on the phone, the wind noise makes it very darn hard to used a cell. well, with this peace since non of the noises would be heard on the other end it would make a normal conversation much more possible.

and you dont even have to speak in a normal tone to be heard, whispering is enough to be heard.

i have personally tested the peace while i was in the russian restaurant, and for any of those who know russian restaurant the music is as loud as in any night club. i went outside, while my buddy with the bluetooth peace stayed inside, and i did not hear anything but his voice.
needless to say, i was amazed.

now, the product is not on the market yet. the person who works for the company has only a couple of pieces only. i am getting couple of them for myself and family members.

just wanted to share the info, and weather anyone would be interested.

p.s. just wanted to see if anyone heard of this?

opinions too, plz

I still have my BT headset for sale. They claim it's military technology I am not sure if this is the one you speak of.

We are talking about a BT headset made by a company called Jawbone. They make the best BT headset for dirt cheap IMO.

Agreed. I have the Jawbone, and it is by far the best BT earpiece I have found to date (I've had or tried pretty much everything).

The one thing I did do to it as a mod was buy the Jabra ear canal "fit-ins" - those soft transparent things that go in your ear canal to better allow you to hear - and use those instead of the smaller hard-shells that come with the Jawbone. It solved the one problem I've had which was a relatively low volume even at highest setting, making it difficult to hear in a crowded room. With the combination it works really well.

The Jawbone has one drawback....it is MASSIVE! That aside, after all of these glowing comments, I'm buying one for my next headset in a month or so. I have a Plantronics and a Razor that or such POS's. I think I need a Jawbone and an iPhone.

+1 on the Jawbone...it's a fine BT headset and with the ear inserts, I was able to adapt to a comfortable fit with clear reception - something that always bothered me with my previous headsets with my apparently deformed ear...

I don't use it as much anymore given the BT module in my E63, only when I drive my wife's SUV. We'll have BT in her ordered X5 and as she'll be pairing her BB to the X5, not sure if I'll keep using my Jawbone or switch it on/off as needed in it.

I must admit I'm quite fond of the in-car BT functionalities and being able to use the keypads and address book without needing to hold the device.

In what way is it better? Noise rejection on the Jawbone is supposed to be second to none.

i was actually was talking about invisio.

"It has no external microphone and captures vibrations in the user’s jawbone converting them to crisp and clear sound."

i think that is what makes invisio different from jawbone! (i have not tried jawbone, so i cannot say anything about it)

i tried to look it up on ebay, they dont have the Q7 model yet.
i am buying it from this guy who works for the company.
