I finally broke down and purchased a Chumby in basic black. It was a tough decision .... I mean, it runs embedded Linux after all :O..  I managed to rationalize it to myself by saying I needed a new alarm clock.  Not entirely true since my current alarm clock is just fine but I guess we all have our own vices.  The potential of this device is huge in my opinion and I can't wait for it to arrive and start customizing it.  If you haven't seen or heard about this device yet, take a look at their overview or hop on over to their blog.  Now if I could only get Mono running on this ... ;-)
