Reading the comments to that Wired review, it certainly seems that the Chumby has split the vote there. I think it's got such great potential (as Matt has demonstrated).. I'd love something like that to replace my alarm clock. Maybe someone will write a widget to get it to play badgerbadgerbadger at you to wake you up ;) <em><strong>update:</strong></em> just how good is this though? http://www.chumby.com/guide/widget/BBC2%20Clock <em><strong>another update:</strong></em> If you, like me, are wondering how you make widgets for the Chumby, the link you need is http://wiki.chumby.com/mediawiki/index.php/Developing_widgets_for_chumby - it uses Flash Lite 3.

It's just a glorified digital photo frame and I don't see the appeal of those either. But I reserve the right to change my mind if/when the community finds some really cool uses for it!
