Topic: chumbyradio and chumbradiod?

I was just exploring my new Chumby from SSH and wondering what these two commands do?
I looked at the -h flag output but still not clear what it does and how it differs from btplay I suppose.

They require an as-yet unreleased hardware accessory.

Hopefully this isn't spilling the beans or anything, but I peeked at the source code for these and it looks like they use a USB FM receiver module. I imagine the unreleased hardware accessory will let your Chumby listen to FM radio.

Hopefully for silvermoon because it doesn't have an FM radio or ipod support
