Hey I never thought about that! :ahh: Cool $600? I am going to just make my own, I think it would be a fun challenge. But I doubt I would get far. :(

I had to know: 150,000 yen is around $1300 American. Not bad, for what it is.

The sony one does look really cool but it doesnt say anything about price. But it shouldnt be to much more (or less) than the Japan version.
