Earlier quoted context omitted.
It's more like a web server that runs an alarm clock. The Chumby has the computing power of web servers 10 years ago.
Isn't that what I just said?
No

#22I 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.

There is always the number line :P

#23Chumpy 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.
It does have a stereo 1/8th inch jack on it, and neither set of speakers is really any good for music, so if you really care about audio quality, I would use external speakers. Stereo doesn't do that much when the speakers are 4" apart.
