My buddy has an iguana. They're so chill and make no noise. It just sits on the back of his couch, chilling, and breathing in the smoke that billows around him. :p
My friend way back when used to have a chameleon, it changed colors with his moods and stuff. It was pretty cool, but I'd lose something that small. :p

depends on the breed of the chameleon, the more popular and widely pet-isized(yeah i know it's not a word, but i'm special like that) type have roughly the same body mass as a parakeet.
iguana's are cool as hell i love 'em i've had 5 so far =/ the only downside is it's hard to keep them alive for longer then a year, and if you can grow one to the entire 5-6 feet they can get (sounds aot bigger then it really is, their tails are roughly 2/3 of their length) you're either damn good or damn lucky

for an iggy u need a rather large vivarium
an easier gecko to start with is a leaopard gecko they will require the smalelst of all species viv's
they cost about £30-£50 goin up to £1500 depending on morph (colours)
and yes iggys can be prone to many health problems if theyre habitat is not maintained 100% correct 100% of the time theyre sort of a mid-intermediate experience keeper rated

My real thought on this is,,,these creatures need to be in the wild only,,,I am so against the domestication of the wild!!!

Two good beginner geckos are Crested and Leopard geckos, both are easy to care for and widely available. Iguanas are not for beginners in any way, they require lots of care and special needs. Another good lizard to look into are Blue Tongue Skinks, they are fairly easy to keep and generally timid. Number one thing to do before you purchase though is to be responsible and research about the animal first so that you can properly care for it. If you need any help or have herp related questions just ask I can answer most of them.

ive got a bearded dragon. man they have to be the chillest lizards.
the only problem with them is they will fuck up any other lizrd that comes near them.
