#13A few years back (before the iPhone & Android were out) I hosted a website on my Nokia N82 phone. Nokia enabled this by routing requests to the server on your phone via a URL hosted at '.mymobilesite.net' (now discontinued).

My phone has a 1GHz ARM processor and is used as an alarm clock! Can't a big thing be a small thing too?

It's more like a web server that runs an alarm clock. The Chumby has the computing power of web servers 10 years ago.

#16Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at kwf.dyndns.org:5821. well, I guess that was expected for a website that is hosted on an alarm clock :)
Corporate/home firewall may be blocking that?

#17Chumpy looks interesting (feel like I should have known about it before now)..but I find the choice between battery+cheaper vs stereo unfortunate. I'd consider a Chumpy One + Stereo (at a higher price)..but as-is, I feel the available options lacking.

#20I wonder how badly the "Chumby" name hurts their organic search.
Of the 18 comments currently on HN, discounting one explicit correction, we have 3 erroneous "Chumpy"s and 1 correct "Chumby".
It's a shame all the useful names are trademarked and we have to resort to synthetic alphabetic tags for the rest of eternity.
