That link will give you more details.

It's a synth and more. You program it to do what you wish or which synth you wish it to be, effects etc. A unit with a DSP chip set up that allows you to alter it as you wish. Or you can buy the software already done for you to accomplish you bidding. Since I do a little programming, I plan on using it to mimic many different synths and effects.

It's a cool device, but rather pricey, considering that you also need software to go with it.  ($1,000US, unless you're a developer, which is still $775 or so.)  I wonder if the prices will ever come down?  I also wonder if the concept of freeware skins will ever really happen?

$499
I signed up as a developer.
There are free items for it. From full synth with code to samples and things others has built for it. I will be checking out the code closely then rolling my own. I expect it to save me thousands.

I don't know about the freeware skins taken off. The $499 is, from what I read from Sound Art group post, a close out for the US stock. After that, it's EU. So the price will go up. I figure if I do create something, I would sell it myself. You still need the unit. $499 isn't that bad for what it can do.

I expect to tailor my own sounds as well as mimic some synths I would have otherwise used software for. I also have the MMV(Arturia Moog software) heading my way. Next year, after I learn the MOOG software, I might spring for the Voyager. 

Some of the bands I run sound for may have me set them up one if they like what I do with it. I already saw a guitar effects unit built around the Chameleon. Right now, I am just thinking about getting it, setting it up, put the synth software in and start using it.

There is a lot of new and cool stuff coming out for the next few months.

This all started when I was looking for something to complement my MS2000. A long and strange trip it has been.

HOWEVER    
today it says sold out... perhaps you give them a call and see if they can order one up for you...

I just bought nearly $1800 from them due to the savings on the Chameleon and other items I wanted.

Arghh! I wish I had known they were selling for $499. I've emailed 
them.... 

What were you saying about this being it for US stock?

US distributors are deleting it from their inventory. Which mean you might have to deal with the EU and all that great costs.

Here is a email I got off the Chameleon list which explains it a bit more.

"By the way.

For those of you who could wonder why this so low price is offered by
Novamusik, the explanation is that they are most probably discounting the
last units in stock of our former U.S. distributor - so get them while you
can!
