There is a photo of the CDTV unit in the Sept 90 issue of CD Review (see p. 23). The article, a report from the Summer CES, is entitled, "Get Ready for the Hot New Trends". CDTV looks very much like a standard CD machine. The unit in the photo is flat black. At first glance, maybe even second or third glance, it would be difficult to tell that it is not just a CD machine. The name "Commodore" appears prominently. The handheld controller appears to have a numeric pad and a bunch of other buttons. It is slightly wider than a standard remote. The paragraph of info adds nothing new to what has been announced, but does make a vague reference to potential lawsuits about the name, CDTV. Now I wonder who owns those four letters?
