The writing's been on the wall for some time now, with this having been considered a done-deal back in March, but now the two parties involved are going public.

No word on cost, but MOG is said to have raised $33 million in funding to date, so that might give you a ballpark figure. It's also unclear how or whether Beats-investor HTC might be involved in this new relationship, but if recent happenings are any indication, don't go expecting too much on that front.
