Ordered a Chumby!
In an effort to get a jump on the game, I have decided to order a Chumby (http://www.chumby.com) for myself to start some experimentation. I ordered it online from CostCo for $104.99 counting tax. The specs for this device are interesting:
chumby one specs
* 3.5 inch LCD color touchscreen
* Access to free content
* Uses rechargeable lithium ion battery (not included)
* USB 2.0 high-speed port
* Stereo headphone output
* 2W mono speaker
* Volume knob
* FM radio tuner
* Accelerometer (motion sensor)
* Wi-fi connectivity (802.11 b/g)
* USB ethernet compatible
* Over-the-air software updates
* Dimmable backlight
* 454 MHz ARM processor
* 64 MB DDR SDRAM
* Internal microSD card firmware
* AC adapter included
* 3.5" wide x 4" tall x 3.5" deep
Apparently there is instruction on the inside of the case for the compatible Lithium-Ion battery that is compatible with the circuit. I should have some fun with this.
