Beef with Bluetooth headsets:

The nice benefit of a phone is that when you're speaking, you project into the phone, and not open air. People tend to fail to modulate their voice, or even talk louder, and now what you're left with is [censored] shouting. I'm not really sure why this is something we need to enable.

People talk louder into cell phones because you don't hear your own voice through the earpiece like on a regular phone. I don't know why the phones are different, but I remember reading that somewhere.
