Chumby Reviews

Chumby is a fairly small, handheld "personal internet player" and Widget browser that is designed to be hacked and modified by the user. The screen is touch-sensitive and it is wrapped in a squeezable, leather casing that can be programmed to recognize the user's gestures.
Reviews
Overall, the Chumby has received positive reviews.
- The New York Times: "After a night with Chumby, I still think it’s a great idea–with a couple of caveats."
- The Gadgeteer: "As an internet device, the chumby is a lot of fun. Sure, you can access all the same information on your regular computer, but you would need to manually go to each site to get the info. With this device, the info comes to you."
- Geek.com: "So far it’s a nice piece of gadgetry to have around."
- Engadget: "We were a little disheartened by the number and variety of widgets available (seriously, only 26 clocks to choose from?) but again, the device's success all comes down to user-generated content as units start to proliferate among the populace."

- Oh, and the chumby site doesn't say it forces adverts onto you. Only reviews, complaints and presentations on their business model do.
