    Not a special deal -- Amazon always has them for $77+change. I wish they would offer the Vibe Duo for this price -- it has a built-in microphone on the cord for the iPhone.

    The sound quality is excellent, though -- a huge improvement over the stock headset that comes with the iPhone. And these actually stay in my ears while walking/jogging. I was always adjusting the Apple headset. The microphonics of the cable are also reasonable -- much less than the Zune's earbuds. The only downside is the level of isolation, which some may not consider a downside, but it's startling when someone walks up behind me in my office (I face away from the door).

    My costco had these for either $55 or $65 so I picked up a pair. They are very nice, only problem I have (depending on the coat) is because they are metal I get static shocks while walking sometimes. Other than that they are great.

    Not much of a "deal" considering these are $67 at Costco EVERYDAY. For the money, these are one of the best values out there. They are bass heavy by design, but not overwhelmingly so. If you like flat (true) sound characteristics, then these are not for you.

    I think the Sennheiser CX300s are much better. Amazon usually has those for around $50. Better sound isolation and frequency response.
    I hear V-Modas require a pretty significant amount of time for the burn in period. Anyone know anything about that?
