Getting my geek on with the Jawbone headset
OK, so I broke down and bought a Jawbone Bluetooth headset. They are ususally about $120, but I got a killer deal on Ebay for under $40, including shipping. But when I was buying it, I noticed that most of them do not come with the USB charger cable (I think someone intercepted a shipment somewhere – hope the cops don’t come for me), so basically the thing is nice-looking but useless. So I needed to buy a charger.
Well, as I started looking around, most of the chargers were about $20. Since my PayPal fund was depleted, and since I am pretty cheap, I was trying to find a better deal. So I started doing some Google searches, and I ran across this site. Basically, someone figured out how to rig a regular USB cable to charge his Jawbone. It’s really not that hard. Just cut the cable, tie on a couple of paper clips, and hook the right leads to the right pins on the Jawbone. BAM!! It charges!
So I decided to try it out myself, and here it is:
Too sweet.
