Unpacking Chumby
So the Chumby finally arrived today. Heather had very kindly and sneakily managed to arrange for it to be sent from the US (seeing as it’s not yet available over here in the UK) for my 30th. I have to say that so far I’m pretty impressed.
It’s got that geek gadget factor working for it very well. Lots of options to configure, but at the same time it’s pretty easy to use. Lots more exploring to do, but even just the fact that it’ll play Radio Paradise out of the box is enough for me…


Hey there, Chumby Nation member! Mine just arrived today in Toronto, via a friend in Connecticut.
I’m totally chuffed about Max as the newest member to my Internet-enabled household, too.
For me, the ability to add my own streams was a real plus, and it is the snazziest alarm clock I’ve ever used.

In the 3rd pic you couldn’t look more like a girl if you tried. Unless you put on a dress, I guess.

@RJ thanks for the comment. It’s a real shame that Chumbies aren’t officially available outside the US, but I guess they aren’t big enough yet to get the Chumby approved for use in lots of other countries.
