They say you can tell a lot about a person by how they sign their name. John Hancock-style signatures with oversized characters and large, exuberant loops and flourishes signify gregarious, outgoing people. Those with a tighter address tend to be more introverted.

Plantronics BackBeat Go Review

The Plantronics BackBeat Go is a comfortable, extremely unobtrusive, wireless stereo Bluetooth earphone set that works equally well for voice calls and music. The featherweight BackBeat Go ($99.99) is a stereo Bluetooth headset equally adept at voice calls, listening to music or podcasts, and watching movies without disturbing anyone nearby. In fact, it's the best stereo Bluetooth headset we've ever used for phone calls, period. A few sound quality-related pitfalls with music hold it back from a perfect rating. But the BackBeat Go is still easily good enough to secure our Editors' Choice award for wireless headphones, and is well worth a close look—particularly if the Samsung Modus HM6450's ($99.99, 4 stars) convertible mono and stereo design doesn't appeal to you.

itsy bitsy bluetooth buds

These will not allow you to 'pump it up' out of the box. CS asked me to reboot the device by turning it off and back on in pairing mode, then holding vol + & - together, I believe this did reset the volume limiting circuitry.
