I currently own a Jawbone, but I thought pushing the button would be a problem. Perhaps I should just have someone push the button and leave it that way? That's essentially what I do with my Plantronics wireless microphone for my computer. The battery charge on it lasts around 10 or 11 hours.
How long does the battery charge last on your Bluetooth? Are you able to hit a button? Thanks a lot for the input.
