Sweet Mod! I have one in mind that I will share once it is done. I too purchased a few I3.5 destine to do some mods on.

Thanks guys! I would love to do another but it seems Chumbys are getting hard to come by and it can take me quite a while to come up with an idea that I like. The work is the easy part. I have many evenings in my Chumby I.F. Amplifier as I had to move a couple of the sub-boards and fabricate some brackets from aluminium. The bezel around the screen was originally much wider to accommodate an analog meter. Some careful cutting, epoxy work and lots of sanding later and it almost looks like it was originally made that size. It is great therapy for me and time well spent.

If anyone is interested, here is where I got the piece of equipment I used for the project:

That would be great! I would love to do another project. I don't care which model it is either. As long as it works I can do something with it. If you find any let me know. I assume they don't cost more than the ones in the store?  ;-)

BTW, I have the enclosure from the Chumby One that was murdered by a friend's kid. It was running naked as it was going to go into the I.F. amplifier. The case was untouched. If you have a Chumby One that is in working order I can send you the case so you can sell the unit in the store.  I also have the USB wifi module but I am not sure if it is still working. It looks fine physically but I have not tried it since the incident.

Oh, I have the box and plastic packing for the Chumby One also. In case you have need of the Chumby One enclosure.

Actually, one of the main reasons I preferred the I3.5 devices over the C devices was the way the case was designed.  The bezel is flat and can easily be put into enclosures.  I had a grand idea of using them as "control panels" embedded into my walls in a couple places in my house.  That idea hasn't come to fruition for many reasons... basically a ton of boring excuses.  For instance, the sun was in my eyes.

I went to storage yesterday evening and found a few C1s that seem to be in craftable condition - broken enclosures, etc, but the electronics seem sound, though I need to run them for a while to make sure. I found a few more that are missing various components, but are probably Frankensteinable to get into working condition.

I didn't check for I3s - I probably don't have many since we didn't sell them, so if I have them, they're probably development protos.

I'm low on C1 power supplies, so what I might do with these is ship them with the components of the barrel connector so that the crafter can use whatever power supply they want, for instance, a completely different supply with a converter cable mounted in the device.
