With the prevalence of Wifi, and cheap programmable devices, Chumby comes out very soon. It reminds me a little of a Gp2X though that was a games console and Chumby is different.
A Chumby is an always connected (if you have Wifi), battery backed but mains operated compact device (little bigger than a mug) that displays useful and entertaining information from the web: news, photos, music, celebrity gossip, weather, box scores, blogs etc.
It’s Open, running Linux and programmable. It can’t quite do video but that may happen. It has a touch screen so no keyboard needed. Feature wise it has 32 MB of RAM, 2W Speakers, a 320 x 240 Screen, 2xUSB ports, ambient light sensor, headphones socket and Wifi Connectivity. Looks interesting…
