In the meantime, check out this stuff:

Extraordinary workmanship, and I must say, absolutely wonderful to look at. Bright, vibrant, and the color-shifting is to die for. Has a nice light-sensor so it goes on at sundown. This is the nicest color-shifting nightlight I've ever owned, and I own about 12. Superb unit. $20US.
One of these:
Is now under the Xmas tree. I had a go, however, in secret, prior to it getting wrapped, and I must say - awesome to look at. The wall mount idea is superb. $80US.
I really wanted to get the larger one (LT-900). But I decided I'd order up a LaserPod with the cash I save by getting the LT-500.
Keep an eye out for this people. Now that Unity is no more, LaserPods and ColorCubes are all we're going to have for a long time.

What can I say? It's an amazingly COOL piece of lighting gear.
US Llamasofties: Ulta, Linens-N-Things, and other stores like them, are BLOWING THESE OUT. In fact, my wife returned the one we got at Linens-N-Things (for a mere $29) to Ulta, where she got the first one, and got her $80 back. I am annoyed that these would drop so alarmingly in price on the 26th of December.
Anyway, having put it through its paces for a few days, I am overwhelmed. The audio-reactive aspect is awesome. It has a sensitivity dial, so once you have the thing set up, put on some music, adjust it - you never have to touch it again. The modes are great - 4 color changing patterns: Lounge, Daydream, Doze and Party (each of these is like a pre-programmed sequence - takes about 10 minutes to loop). The patterns mesh and blend in ways that dazzle the eye. The color-shifting of these LEDs is quite extraordinary and the best I've yet seen. Bands of color wash across the grid; all the squares suddenly shift to a mesmerizing purple, and then a pattern emerges in a deep orange, or turquoise or something else. There are three speeds for each mode. Audio-reactivity has the effect of pattern shifts, or color flicker. Often both. Really lights up its surrounding area, but it isn't too bright. A joy to look at.
Not as spectacular as the LT-500, but its form, and modes are comparable (minus the audio-reactivity). This one looks like a therapists couch, of course, and the bands of color travel and pulse. I have yet to play with this one for more than a few hours, but like the others, the color-shifting is amazing. I love LEDs.

The LT-900 (not pictured) is 24"L x 3.25“W x 24"H. I have yet to see these in a store, however.
