Topic: Similar Device -- but $600!

On Make:, I spotted this device, which has the power to become a chumby with some software...

However, the pricepoint is 3x, not to mention that the chumby has a package and software.

However, maybe in the final production units, you could use their style of a Wifi module, rather than USB. It looks smaller, and since the antenna is separate, you could stick it on the other end of the chumbilical, where heat isn't as much of an issue.

I said the same thing when I saw this on Makezine.  I commented to great lengths about how the chumby was equivalent and superior.
