JVC's Kameleon Turns Me On

This is a promotional video for JVC created by Danny Klein, who you may remember from Team 8 on the original Bull Run TV show as part of Team 8, piloting the 2007 Lotus Exige S. The video features JVC's new Kameleon CD player, a mean-looking Camaro SS, Jacoby Shaddix of Papa Roach, Josh Todd of Buckcherry, and a bunch of wet, bikini-clad, strippers girls washing said Camaro. If you haven't had a chance to check out JVC's new Kameleon gear, I highly recommend heading down to your nearest dealer and checking it out.

JVC Adds KW-NX7000 Double-DIN Nav

JVC has really been stepping up there game in the last year or two. Their oversized-DIN radios have changed the face (pun intended) of in-dash radios, and the re-introduction of the new sleek Kameleon series was a welcomed return. One of the newer radios to hit the JVC stables is the new double-DIN KW-NX7000. This beauty features a detachable faceplate with a low-reflection 7" touchscreen. The faceplate also features proximity-sensing buttons that are blacked out, but illuminate when you finger approaches them. The NX7000 GPS uses NAVTEQ mapping software with a built-in RDS tuner for real-time traffic info, as well as a WAAS for more accurate GPS positioning. The unit is also Bluetooth capable for hands-free cellphone operation. The navigation and Bluetooth can also work together for POI syncing, which adds a touch of added convenience to the navigation. If you're being directed to a specific restaurant, for example, you can also dial that restaurant through the GPS via Bluetooth and your mobile.

The NX7000 will playback DVD, CD, MP3, WMA, WAV, DivX, JPG and MPEG formats, is satellite radio and HD Radio ready, and can accept a rearview camera.  The NX7000 also has an improved iPod GUI and high-speed USB 2.0 connection, whcih makes a pretty dramatic difference when sorting through content and menus on your iPod. The screen will also display album artwork, and the radio charges your iPod as well. If you're not an iPod fan, you access MP3s via the SD card slot or USB port.

JVC ElKameleon: Black is Back and Badder Than Ever!

In 1999 JVC introduced the first El Kameleon radio, it was an instant hit due to it's unique black-out face, bold LCD display and touch panel faceplate. JVC eventually changed design directions and ended the Kameleon's reign a few years later, but the design influenced future faceplate designs for years after.
Now, almost ten years after it's initial introduction, JVC has reintroduced the Kameleon, adding cues from the unique and popular single-DIN KD-NX navigation radios. My pics didn't turn out too great, but in all reality, a picture can't do this radio justice. You really have to check them out in person! Check out more pics and details from the official press release after the jump.
