The CDTV from Commodore i think is the curiosest of all Amigas. The first version has build in the technic of the Amiga500 (512 KB RAM). Further Version included the technic from the Amiga500+ (1MB RAM). The CDTV has a Memorycard-Slot at the front. Through accessories like a Keyboard and Discdrive the CDTV could be upgraded to an complete Amiga 500 (Amiga 500+).

The included Infrared-Joyboard could be switched to use as Joystick or Mouse. Also all CD-Player-funktions could was included on the joyboard.

With the Genlock-Addon the TV-Signal could be mixed with the Amiga-Grafic. But only the Backgroundcolor of the Amiga could be cut and replaced through the TV-Signal.
