Re: Era Jawbone headset

2012-04-23 Thread Scott Howell
Well someone who has this earphone will no doubt chime-in. First the thing that 
is an earpiece is likely the earpiece. The Era likely has a loop on the 
earpiece that you tuck inside the crease of your ear flap. Yes that thing that 
sticks out of the side of your head and has several creases in it. Yes, you 
actually stuff the earpiece in your ear and when that loop is placed properly 
in the flappy ear thing on your head it will stay very nicely. Yes, even if you 
were to toss your head about like one of those headbangers going metal 
thrashing mad.
The earpiece likely came with a couple of different loop sizes to fit different 
flappy ears. So, find the one that fits the flap and get flappy happy.
Now the other thing that looks like a battery is really the wall charger. You 
plug a very short cable into that and then the earpiece. This cable is not very 
flappy in fact and is incredibly short. Well ok, I have the Jawbone Icon and 
the cable was about three inches. I would recommend plugging the cable into the 
earpiece before connecting to the ac adapter. Btw, I imagine your ac adapter 
has the foldable prongs.
Maybe that will help until someone smarter than I can shed more light on the 
subject.

 I just got my Era Jawbone headset and have no clue what to do with it, there 
 are three parts; one looks like a hear piece but with nothing to latch it 
 onto; second looks like a big battery but with a USB thing on it and the 
 third, a thing that I suppose you wrap the head set in when not in use?
 Maybe not though.
 If some one can just straighten me out a bit I may be able to figure out the 
 rest of this.
 Thanks,

RE: Era Jawbone headset

2012-04-23 Thread Patti Johnson
Okay, it looked like it came with several pieces, in the lid of the box, in
one side to the box.  I found a curvy thing that I suppose goes over your
ea.  It looks like to me a lot of this stuff has to be attached and I made
the mistake of taking the one rubbery thing off the little ear piece and
there is no way that I can get it back on.
I think I also see that it has a small interesting looking thing to put the
ear piece in, but I don't see a wire to hook it up to charge it with.
Should it have come with one, I'm assuming so.
Unfortunately I don't have the best strength with my hands so getting all
these tiny pieces to fit where they are supposed to go will be interesting.
Thanks,
Patti
