Radio shack Electronic Record / Playback Module Kit

[Andrew Puls]

Hey everyone,

The radioshack in my area is sellling what is normally
a $60 digital recording/playback IC/Kit (Velleman
K4400) for $10. They still have a few of the kits.
Info on the product is here:

http://www.radioshack.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=CTLG&category%5Fname=CTLG%5F009%5F001%5F010%5F003&product%5Fid=990%2D0021

What I'm wondering is, would it be worthwhile to pick
up a couple of these and try to make some sort of
experimental lo-fi sampler/noisemaker thingie with a
couple of them? Is there anywhere on the web where you
think I might be able to find pinouts for the chip
they use? I am not really a designer, but I am pretty
good at circuit bending, and especially if I know what
each pin on the chip is supposed to do, I can usually
come up with something interesting if I know what I
have in front of me. These have me interested because
I hacked my casio sk-5 toy sampler recently and the
sounds it makes are amazing now. I am thinking that I
can construct something along the same lines with a
couple of these.

So what do you guys/gals(?) think, is this thing
hackable into something interesting?
