Does anybody know of a source for visible red laser diodes?  I
recall reading in some electronics magazine several months ago that
their availability at cheap prices was imminent.  By cheap, I guess
I mean ~$15 or less for single quantity prices.  I don't really
expect to find these goodies for a buck apiece...

I could think of a thousand neat uses for these things right off
the bat -- it sure would be fun to play around with a few!

Thanks for any info you might have!
