CDTV also got some press today on CNN headline news.  In their coverage
of a multimedia expo, CDTV was the only product mentioned by name.  Strangely
enough, they interviewed Timothy Leary who has been assocated with
Amiga is past products.

Our dealer now has several CDTV disks and I've also seen it run what I
believe are CD+G disks.  Your dealer should also have a CBM published
catalog of CDTV titles available now along with a few future titles in
it. Has anoyone seen any other the peripherals (keyboard, mouse) yet?
Can it use any standard Amiga disk drive in its disk drive port?
