Chances are, that JB-100 you picked up 'round Christmastime last year isn't even broken in yet, but JayBird's already launching the aforesaid device's proper successor. The just-introduced JB-200 features complete AVRCP music / call controls, an improved fit (25-percent narrower ear-tip), better sound isolation, higher-grade silicon tips, boosted bass performance and a 1-inch longer behind-the-neck cord. For those rolling without an A2DP-capable handset / handheld, the company still offers up its Bluetooth Adapter for iPod or the Bluetooth adapter for MP3, the latter of which functions with practically any DAP or PMP. You'll also get around 5.5-hours of music listening time, 6.5-hours of talk time and 110-hours in standby mode. The JB-200 should be shipping out as we speak for $129.99, but folks needing one of the previously mentioned adapters will be coughing up an extra $30.

There's just not a lot we can say about this new MS500 Bluetooth stereo headset from Movon... 'cept this: they make us want to kill, and curiously, drink beer from a straw all at the same time. See, there was a time when big, craplastic Bluetooth stereo headset designs were expected, but forgivable from such a fledgling technology. But by now, manufactures should have seen the light. "Coming soon," you say Movon? Please, say it isn't so.
