Wow - thanks everybody! And thanks especially to all the folks who threw their names into the metaphorical hat. Sorry for any stress you might have felt - hopefully not much.
Strange how now that the poll has closed, it appears to have converted into a non-public poll. I don't think there's any dispute that evm1024 got the most votes, and when I was able to pop in earlier, what was there appeared to conform to the "rules" in the first post. But if this were larger scale and less well monitored, it would be a bust (unless someone knows how to see the individual votes at this point - I sure don't see it).
So congrats evm1024! I'm still traveling, but returning on Friday, and over the weekend I'm going to try and work out my missing 9volt wall wart issue and ship on Monday or Tuesday. I'm kind of glad you're not in London, since I would feel like a total idiot (much worse than actually being one, which I don't mind) for not having it with me right now.
I have to say, I've opened the DMP3 up before and didn't see any obvious way to mod it into a better thing -- not that I necessarily would, being in the bottom 10% of electronics knowledgments around here. But don't worry evm1024, it never felt the hot sting of my $8 soldering iron.
A few weeks ago, I was remembering cool guitar pedals I had as a teen/young adult, like an original fuzz face, one of those cool electric mistress flanger pedals, etc., and then wondered where they are -- some prolly got stolen, but then I remembered that I had given a lot of them away because I didn't like playing with effects. At first, I felt bummed out, but then it was like, OK, at least I know I gave them to other musicians (and people gave me stuff, including many of the things I later gave away), so that's actually alright.
mshilarious -- kickass that you're going with it already, and I had suspected that we did it here first
. I bet most of us who come here have something or other that we don't use that would be really useful to someone else and is worth giving away. If you choose to do it and do it here, read through this thread (and if you can find it, the first thread where everyone announced their interest) and remember which parts appear to work best.

Good Luck with it!
