Here's a recent article by "bunnie" Huang, one of the three founders of Chumby. (Along with Duane and Ken Steele.) It gives some insight into the things Chumby had to deal with in terms of the technical desires vs the business end of it all. It also mentions how there were very few other ways to get internet info in to your home "way back" in 2006, other than sitting at a computer. Once again, we really owe these 3 founders for everything good about the Chumby. bunnie:
