It's called the Jeep Color TV/DVD/Radio/Flashlight/Lantern/Boombox, or just the JXDVDBB for short. Its main feature is a 5-inch LCD screen TV that can tune in both VHF and UHF TV channels over the air (remember those?) and display movies from the integrated DVD player. There's also a radio that tunes in standard AM/FM stations as well as the NOAA weather band that will automatically lock in on the nearest government weather station with the most up-to-date weather and emergency information.
It also has a motion alarm detector, a compass (what, no GPS?), a thermometer, a built-in flashlight, an emergency flasher and space to store DVDs and CDs. It even repels mosquitoes.
It's powered either by a standard AC power cord or by a cord that connects to the lighter in the car. It will also work with batteries, though the number and size of them has yet to be determined, we're told. It's not available yet, but will be in the fall and should retail for about $600.
Here it is... (http://www.forbes.com/home_asia/2003/01/27/cx_ah_0127tentech.html)
