Decent micro guitar amp...

I'm looking for a dirt cheap micro guitar amp as I'm going on a trip soon I don't want to lug my 30W combo with me, something small that will fit in with my luggage and shit. I also want to spend little... Roland Microcubes look excellent but I don't want to spend that much, not to mention it's quite big.

So something dirt cheap that can have metaly distortion. Perhaps someone can reccomend one of these pocket amps? $40 -preferably less- would be my budget, as I'm only going to use it when I travel.

This one?

Holy shit, that was pretty impressive tone. Do they have volume, overdrive or EQ controls? I might get it regardless, but any other reccomendations? Thanks.

I thought of this, hence why I was about to post about scrapping this idea. I think I should just spend money on a multi FX pedal and use that. Anyway thanks for all the help. I might buy a Smokey for the hell of it when I have some cash as I was really impressed by the sound.

PODs are a bit out of the price range.
