Topic: Does the Chumby have a realtime clock (RTC) with battery backup?

I can't trust my internet connection to work all the time and I want to use a chumby as an alarm clock. I don't have a Chumby yet but I looked over the schematics and I can't see a 32Khz osc with a battery backup?

If there is none built-in, is there one available on an optional plug-in board? Or does the Chumby have an I2C interface?

Re: Does the Chumby have a realtime clock (RTC) with battery backup?

Chumby has a 9V that's used to keep the clock (and parts of the rest of the device) running while the device is unplugged or during a power outage.
