    Here is one to ponder. We are old as the hills and my bride has lost 
her voice. I did a Google search and found the exact speaker and mike 
that she can use to amplify her voice. Price? $850.00!

    I looked in the Wal Mart store and found a portable sterio speaker 
system you can plug in a I-Pod and get loud stuff. I ordered one for 
$17.95 and will search for a mike and amplifier up to I-Pod level :-)

    Might have $25.00 in the gadget.
