OK, I just clicked on the picture of the Jabra headphones at Woot, and I'm now almost 100% certain that they are re-branded ATs. If you've been thinking about getting a pair of noise canceling headphones, get these.

Here's the link to AT's website: http://www.audio-technica.com/cms/he...785/index.html

you sure about this rebranding thing? They look different to me:

**CingularDuality** · 11-26-2007, 01:11 PM

I'm pretty sure they're the same thing. I'll have to check when I get home, but I think my Audio Technica's fold on the headband, just like on the Jabras. Check out these two photos:

**WhiskeySix** · 11-26-2007, 01:54 PM

hmmm - guess I'm missing something because I don't see any shared components between those two pictures

**WhiskeySix** · 11-26-2007, 03:44 PM

Even though I'm 99% sure they're not rebranded AT's, I picked up a pair based on this review at Audioholics and this comment at woot.

The power switch is the same and in the same place. The battery goes in the same place, with the same type of enclosure. The microphones are in the same place, but have a different aperture and grill. The headband is the same (although the photos don't reflect this. My AT headphones rotate in the same place as the Jabras). Every thing except the cosmetics are the same, as far as I can tell.

The Jabras might have cheaper speakers, though, I don't know. Maybe the AT rejects go into the Jabra headphones? Possible...

**P8riot** · 11-26-2007, 05:24 PM

I can see the similarities. Enough to agree with Cing. My eDimensionals were the same way, sharing design with three other brands that I know of, although cosmetically appearing quite different.

This Sandisk Sansa is freaking awesome. I love it, and I've only had it in my hands for 2 hours.

FM radio quality great, so is voice recording. 22 bucks..what a steal.

The one today is a 4 gig. They have offered others at 2 gig and I think a 1 gig version. I got 3 of the 2 gig versions and they are pretty cool.

UnDeaD77 · 12-03-2007, 11:33 PM

Man, I would have bought that one too, now my money is tight, or I'd buy another. I'm addicted to mp3 players.

**Tonk** · 12-04-2007, 01:44 AM

i have a 30 gig ipod video.... i love to watch episodes of tv shows and/or movies while im driving.... no really... it holds about 15 episodes if i remember right, on top of my 6000 or so songs
