Default Jawbone Bluetooth headset for your cell phone

I'm looking for an opinion on the new Jawbone wireless headset for your cell phone. Anyone used this on their bike?
Thinking about purchasing one and I'd like to know if the noise canceling works at speed on the bike.
Heres the link to their site. Quite amazing in my opinion.

With all the idiot cagers out there, the last thing I'd want to be doing while riding is talking on my cell phone.

Same here. It's tough enough not getting run over without being on a cell phone. [:@]

Not trying to get on anyone's case here, but why do you want a cell phone on the bike? Why do people carry these things around like some sort of life suppoert system? When I go on the bike or my boat the last thing I want is a phone call. I like time where no one can find me, just a little piece and quiet. Please explain why you need a phone every where you go!!!!

Looks pretty good if you wear a half helmet or no helmet at all, and all you need to do is be able to use a cell phone. Looks like a 3/4 or full face helmet would interfere with the piece that sits against the cheek.

J&M is supposed to be coming out with an all-in-one unit that will transmit cell signals, mp3 music, etc. from your cell phone to an earpiece via bluetooth. You can listen to music stored on your phone, then when a call comes in it pauses the music &you take the call, and whenyou hang upyour music starts again. Pretty cool & I think it's supposed to be out sometime in June...

Cell phones and bikes don't mix IMO, but if you GOTTA have it looks good...

My bluetooth the air flow noise is to loud to talk. But my headphone work well and air noise is not as bad.
