The LUCI lab has a Chumby for researchers to incorporate into their work. "What is a Chumby?" you ask. It is somewhere between a PDA and a stuffed animal. It is a completely open, customizable, digital accessory. It has Wi-Fi, a 3-inch touchscreen, accelerometer, a soft case, USB and an online infrastructure for managing what it displays. There are lots of well thought out hacks that go along with it. Like the image on the left for example. It's a real-time view of what the Chumby is currently displaying.

I'll leave the online account password near the Chumby so that you can mess around with setting up your own channels of content.
