FYI:
Please excuse the cross-post as I wanted to get the word out. This project looks like it will be funded on Kick Starter, but it won’t be cheap. Retail the price will be $189.

Sound Band, The Wireless Speakerless Headset

Manufacturers of over-the-ear and in-ear headphones have the daunting task of delivering quality sound in a package that is comfortable to wear. Who’s
going to wear something if it bugs them or causes aches?
Unfortunately, everyone can’t be pleased all the time, but what option does that leave for those who want to listen to their jams comfortably and privately?

If you’re tired of uncomfortable ear buds, you might be interested in the new Sound Band, a wireless and speakerless headset.
Sound Band lets you listen to your music while having your ears unblocked to the world.
Sound Band employs surface sound technology to deliver sound to both ears while providing and entirely new listening experience. The project has been through
years of prototypes, improvements, and testing. The team received an Innovations Design and Engineering Award at the 2010 International Consumer Electronics
Show in Las Vegas, proving they were on the right track with the concept.

Version 4.0 is ready for production. The Sound Band now features amazing audio in a slim, comfortable, behind-the-ear design.
It’s also equipped with dual multi-directional microphones with noise-reduction and echo-cancellation technologies. The controls are specifically designed
to be intuitive while providing balance and comfort while wearing.
Sound Band can work for you while driving, listening to music, playing games, and more. The headset uses Bluetooth wireless technology to connect to Bluetooth-enabled
devices. It will be compatible with Apple and Android products with BlackBerry and Windows joining the list once their funding goal has been met.
