Plantronics Pulsar 590A Bluetooth headphonesShiny Shiny have a review of the Plantronics Pulsar Bluetooth headphones and they seem very happy with them.

The Plantronics Pulsar are designed to operate with both your mobile phone and portable music player allow you to seamlessly make and receive calls while listening to music. For example, if someone calls you while you’re rocking out to a bit of Metalica, the Pulsar will inform you via a tone and allow you to accept, mute, change the volume and end the call all from the controls on the earphone. Even better, once you end the call, the Pulsar will turn the music back on. Brilliant!

According to Shiny Shiny, this all works really well although they did have some difficulties pairing the headphones with certain mobile phones, probably due to incompatibilities in the Bluetooth connections.

Interestingly, the headphones also seemed to send the iPod volume display crazy when you use a cell phone to make calls.

Despite these issues, Shiny Shiny still seem impressed by the headphones and at only £75, I can’t say I blame them.
