Dealers say that there is no word on when the offical CDTV keyboard
from CBM is coming out, but I have heard that is a simple matter to 
convert a A2000 keyboard to the CDTV player.  The CDTV uses the small
8 pin connector for the KB.  One dealer told me that a customer converted
his A2000 KB to the CDTV by making a gender changer.  This seems like a 
simple enough thing to do.

I have also heard that all the perphials are supposed to be around $50
for it.  If so I want a new floppy drive for my A2000, even if it is
black.

Once Commodore gets the Trackball and keyboard out I think they will
sell a lot more units.  I already know a couple people waiting for
the KB and mouse to come out.
