(The chip doesn't sound as good as I hoped, but...)

I actually _did_ go to Toys-R-Us - to try to find a case for a kit 
with that chip in it. I was looking for a plastic trumpet or 
something to glue the board onto, mount switches on the trumpet 
'valves', speaker in horn, mic in mouthpiece.

Couldn't find anything - second store or garage sales are the next 
stop in my search.
