Just read they're finally coming out with a toy version of the KeepOn, a "toy" robot used by researchers to interact with autistic children. Research version is $30,000!! Toy should be around $40.

Awesome accessory for a boombox (and the ultimate office doodad). Can't wait to get mine. :-D :-D

its kinda cool. it would be way cooler if they were coming out with a reissue m70 tho. that box in that video looks like it has been stored in a vault.

Come on Joel, it is not! You are the JVC king!

M75 is gold and the Victor M70 is silver. Both have the same knobs on the front.

This one clearly doesn't have the fine tuning knob that the M75 has look at the box at about 1:18 that badge on the front of the box is big and likely says "VICTOR" .

My daughter just watched this video with me. Now, she's bugging me for one. Are you sure it's something they are planning to release? Looks like the video was filmed in 2007.

the 07 vid was prob featuring the original research model

if i had to guess, i would think they are aiming for a 4th quarter release for holiday sales
i am only guessing this cuz in their release they are drawing parallels their previous year's *xmas blockbuster*
