There was a little loudspeaker with a microphone; the commercial showed some kids singing into it (the original karaoke?); then a bunch of boys playing war with one kid wearing the speaker on his chest while yelling orders into the mike (I wondered if real soldiers did that). I also associate Emenee with spots for a toy bagpipe, but that could be a misplaced connection.<br /><br />Even with an iPod carrying thousands of tracks, I'm still drawn to the once cutting-edge entertainment technology of my youth: Little reel-to-reel tape recorders; stereos with woodgrain veneer and fold-out turntables; Give-a-Show projectors, Castle Films, etc. I may still have a handheld cassette recorder around here somewhere, from the time it was marketed not as a toy but a yuppie executive tool.<br /><br />I particularly remember coveting a little player piano called, I think, Pianolodeon. Never acquired, but I do have a lot of player piano recordings on the iPod.
