Actually, I think Richard bought one of those (Link is to DSE part number 
K1235).  It's a pretty good price for something that you are undoubtedly 
going to take apart.  Richard brought his in to show everyone but I can't 
comment on anything else because I don't remember.

As to the controller, well, take your PIC (sorry).  Unfortunately you will 
get a hundred and one suggestions as to what's best, but the flip side is 
for every recommendation there will be an expert to support you.  I think I 
would recommend the Picaxe- it's a lot cheaper than a Stamp, and easier to 
use than just a raw PIC.  It's been a while since I looked though, so wait 
and see what others have to say.
