BlankMost of the following is a slightly edited version of the information 
provided at:

www.aftershokz.com

"AfterShokz Bluez sit comfortably in front of the ears and provide listeners 
with a stereophonic sound experience. The innovative and elegantly simple 
design of AfterShokz Bluez open ear headphones is built around a beautifully 
designed, highly ergonomic, extremely stable, one-piece warparound headband. 
The open ear design and the light weight of AfterShokz Bluez make them 
extremely comfortable and stable, even when used over extended periods of time."

"Features
? Open ear design ? nothing in or covering the ears
? Stereo listening experience
? Unblocked hearing for safer outdoor activities
? Transducer pads sit on your cheekbone in front of your ears, making these far 
more comfortable than traditional Bluetooth devices
? Reliable, Bluetooth connectivity
? Lightweight, elegantly simple, ergonomically designed and extremely stable 
wraparound headband and offers unmatched comfort when worn for extended periods 
of time
? Make/take call button on the right transducer and a pause/advance button on 
the left transducer offer total control over music, podcasts, and phone calls
? Adjustable tension band to accommodate a wide range of head sizes and insure 
a secure fit
? Patent pending bone conduction technology transmits sound through cheekbones 
to inner ear, bypassing eardrums
? Includes deluxe hard storage case"

I've also included the following review.  Not sure if this is a valid concern 
for my purposes which is to use them while travelling with my IPhone 4S so that 
the two devices would never be more than 2 feet from each other, maybe 3 if I 
wear the IPhone on my belt in front of me for purposes of GPS directional 
accuracy; Perhaps someone could educate me on the supposed Bluetooth issue?  
Not recommended for serious music audio geeks though music audio with 
aftershokz to me is minimally tolerable.  I currently own the earlier model 
with cord and found them most excellent for my intended use except for 
wrestling with a fragile wire in a down-filled parka with hood and monster 
gloves.
This review was obviously based on Bluetooth specifications alone as they are 
not yet ready for shipment.

"in 2012, you can't seriously be introducing new headphones with ancient 
Bluetooth 2.1 +EDR, which always produces unstable, noisy, crackling 
connections in every-day surroundings."


Doug: seeing is believing; feeling is confirmation.
