Neither Logitech nor Plantronics is commenting on the potential deal.

While there's no identified reason behind the possible acquisition, Plantronics recently snapped up the videoconferencing company Polycom. Logitech would effectively get two big players for the price of one, and could easily build on its existing audio and webcam technologies. There's also the question of reducing competition. While there hasn't been a huge amount of overlap, this would give Logitech one less company to worry about as it consolidates its foothold.

Update 11/25 5:49PM: In a statement, Logitech confirmed that it had been in talks with Plantronics for a "potential transaction," but that those chats had been "terminated."
