Ummm. I believe that was speculation on the part of rumor columnists in
various Amiga magazines.

As CDTV players are supposed to have expansion capability, it might
be possible to create a partial CD-I card for it... altho the user cost of
doing this video upgrade would make it no bargain item, I'm afraid. 
The CDTV cpu is also slower than the one used in CD-I players; altho that
could be replaced offboard as well.  Again tho: the cost to the consumer?

For a while, at least, I think CDTV players will avoid such a dual
personality.  Their strong point is supposed to be that titles can be
created on Amiga personals, due to the base hardware being the same.
