Chumby takes your favorite parts of the Internet and delivers
them to you in a friendly, always-on, always-fresh format. It’s a
window into your Internet life that lives outside your desktop, so
content like weather, news, celebrity gossip, podcasts, music, and
more has a place to play away from your world of documents
and spreadsheets. Just plug in your chumby, connect to your
wireless network, and use your computer to create a lineup of
favorites from over 1,000 widgets in more than 30 categories, with
new ones arriving all the time. Then let your chumby do its thing—
streaming everything you like, from sports scores to stock tips,
from video clips to interactive games, from photos to trivia.

Hi Krishna,

good to see you here! Have you played/worked with one? I can not find someone who has experience prototyping with this. I would love to hear how it is. It’s sad they don’t ship outside the US. Next time I’m there I’ll get one for sure.

Hey Camille,
Yep……feels like I am an Internet addict :)

Chumby’s are nice…only problem….it has a bad touch screen…its like a squishy thingy…small bean bag to say! Has accelometers…an internet radio….and its a beautiful widget player…its like a small computer. You can play youtube…flickr images…twitter feeds…weather…so on…..

I will send you contact emails…you can send a request…then they will ship Chumby to Umea.

AT6T has a similar product called HomeManager http://www.wireless.att.com/homemanager/ I’m not sure you can use it to prototype with. Btw I’m going to SkellefteÃ¥ over Christmas and might be able to bring some stuff…
