It reminds me of an ~expert playing of a Flutophone (those plastic thingys they used to try to make us play in grade school). The ABS is definitely Not helping the sound quality, IMHO!

But you would think it Could at least sell in the same market niche as the Flutophone once the price comes down into the commodity range.
