listening to music privately from your computer and receiving calls on your mobile phone can never be done without switching the listening device (be it handset or earphones) – that’s if, you can even hear your mobile ring when you are blasting tunes into your ear canals. that’s where Jawbone ICON HD + THE NERD comes into play. it bridges the gap between the two by empowering user with the ability to receive calls on their mobile phone (that’s the ICON part of things), while still allowing the user to talk or enjoy wireless music streamed from their computers (and that’s THE NERD part of things). simply plug in THE NERD, a Wire-Free USB Audio Adapter, to your PC or Mac and walah, you can now listen to your music privately and still able to receive calls from the mobile phone.
