The Aliph Jawbone has been one of the most popular and well-received Bluetooth headsets on the market for a long time now.  The only major complaints about it have been to do with a reportedly very flaky charger connector and its rather bulky size factor.

Last week Engadget spotted some details and even a pic (seen above) of the Jawbone 2.  Apparently the new model has just made it past the FCC and will be arriving ‘soon’. 

The new model just broke through the FCC’s surly bonds in full visual glory, showing a headset that maintains the distinctive industrial design of the original while getting just a bit smaller and adopting a new connector that looks moderately less sketchy.

It’s hard to tell in that photo, but it doesn’t seem a whole lot smaller to me.  Sticking with the same, very distinctive, design seems a good call to me though – and if the connector turns out to be more reliable, that’s got to be a good thing.
