Very fun indeed.  I was just watching an eBay auction on a CatStick 
this week, in fact.  It looked very cool indeed, but this takes that 
idea to the next level.  When you say waveshaping I'm guessing that 
you're hinting at Vector Sequencing, which is something I've always 
wondered wasn't implemented in modular synths sooner (Modcan have a 
module for this as well, IIRC, but it just came out).  The 
combination of the digital waveshapers such as the MiniWave and 
WCity and the 1211 and 1209 could make for a really sweet vector 
monosynth.  

The 300 may be passing into history, but the 1200 should be making 
quite the impression with things like this and the Noise Ring.  
Sweet!

(I really did want that Catstick, though--a Bulldogge with Cat...:)
