Michael Knight would be proud, his dear car KITT has been reduced to the size of a boombox.

Gear4's newest "blackbox" comes in a gloss black finish with a flashy red LED display that can show volume or even act as a graphic equalizer. The top of the unit houses the touch screen controls (which disappear when not in use) for the 24 watt stereo speakers. The blackbox can be hardwired or used as a Bluetooth speaker with the ability to connect to any Bluetooth mobile device. The box can be battery powered or plugged in for extended use.

The blackbox comes with a remote and will sell for about $200 when it is released in the next few weeks. A smaller version will also be available for about $120.
