Small proto boxes with LCD and buttons?

Hello Folks,

Many of us have been there: You or a client want to test market a new small gizmo. It needs the usual, a small no-frills graphics LCD, some buttons and a battery. All in a nice little plastic case but shelling out >10k for molds just isn't in the cards at this stage.

Is any company offering such generic prototype boxes? Ideally they should contain a small graphics LCD, 3-4 buttons, a battery holder and cost under $5 in qties of, say, 1000. Size of a pager maybe, with room for one or two square inches for the circuit board.

Regards, Joerg
