Have You Heard The Sound Burger?

Many years ago, Audio Technica came up with a portable device to play records called the Sound Burger. I was wondering if anyone has ever listened to one of these, and how it sounded if you have?

It seems like a great tool for taking to second-hand shops to test records for the background noise that you can't see on the surface.

It looks like the Trax is just a tiny turntable, whereas the Sound Burger is a clamp with a tonearm that swings out from the body of the device. Have you ever seen these for sale anywhere?

Do you think this would be helpful when buying used records, or would it just slow down the process?
