“2. Chumby – I don’t exactly know what it is about this
thing that makes me want one so badly–but I do. At $179USD, it
isn’t cheap but it’s cool. A Chumby is a soft, Internet gadget
thing that is an always-on Internet news reader, photo album, music
player, weather, social networking, messaging thingy. Go take a
look. You’ll want one too.

“3. MusicPal – A wireless Internet radio from FreeCom. Not only
can you listen any one of thousands of radio broadcasts but also
your own music and get live RSS feeds. It’s almost a Chumby without
the screen. 129EUR, if you can find one.”
