     If you look in the latest Edmund Scientific catalog (the consumer
version, not the industrial one) they have two different models of
hand-held laser pointers that are based on visible, continuous, battery
powered laser diodes.  They are selling them for $400.00 so I suspect
the diodes themselves cost on the order of $100-$200 each.  Seems
like it won't be long before lasers are going to be real cheap.
