Thanks for the information hunt Bartux!
Yes, this was a little more (~3x!) expensive than I thought. We would
always have the black-and-white photocopied sheet as a backup. But
that would be a little shame, wouldn't it?

Either we are enough here to pitch in immediately and share the cost
(I pledge 50 CHF) or we have to look for a sponsor (like outlined on
the wiki task plan). Anyone who would like to try to contact a company
or two?

Thanks for your participation!
