5.0 out of 5 stars Chumby: This should spread like Tribbles between Teens, December 24, 2008

By	E. Moore "4the3rdSon" (Charlotte, NC) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

My 14-year old daughter was clueless to Chumby yet immediately both captivated and engrossed. THE holiday HIT for our family in 2008. Chumby will, and should, spread like adorable little Wi-Fi Tribbles. Everybody in the house will need their own Chumby so consolidate your orders!

4.0 out of 5 stars Practicle, but still a bit clunky, April 20, 2009

By	David Calder (Walnut Creek, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I've replaced my alarm clock with the Chumby and have enjoyed having the weather, news, and internet radio bedside. I got it specifically because the local NPR station signal became intolerable. Now I get a nice clean streaming audio. The user interface still has some improvement needed, but it does everything except return to the internet radio station once the alarm is acknowledged (maybe something I haven't figured out, but is is a few steps for my groggy mind in the morning). As the platform is designed to be enhanced over time, I'm looking forward to the UI improvements. WiFi reception is a little weak (needs to be within about 2 rooms away from the wireless router) IMHO Still a bit of a techie toy, but getting very close to regular consumer ready.
