Re: Chumby @ CES

Looks interesting. Like the form factor and the screen seems nicer than the Infocast 8.. Know its wireless but no built in ethernet? Cmon.. Would love to see this in Chumby Blue or black with a blue accent smile

Hope the CPU is a little snappier than the prototype....;)

That wasn't the CPU - the issue was that we didn't have an Internet connection, so the device was tethered through Wifi to an Android phone on 3G.  As you can imagine, at CES, that meant really poor download speeds.

Using a normal residential Wifi connection, it's very snappy.

There are so many people at CES trying to use various wireless bands that the spectrum is totally saturated.  It was really funny seeing folks trying to use their iPhones in the registration tent.
