I'm sure my life will be incomplete without a Chumby but I can't 
figure out why.


Does it run on batteries?

Old glider pilot would like a cheap Chumby.

Anyone with one (working) who wants to sell it please contact Mike.

Buy one and find out :)


Does it run on batteries?


This version doesn't do so officially. Its likely a future hardware  
revision (possibly next year) will do so. This version was meant to,  
but... its a long story.


But its real intention is to live on your office, kitchen or bedroom  
table, not in your cockpit.


As we (Internode) are the people who have brought them to the  
Australian market (see link above - end of commercial)... I'll note  
that yes, we're starting to develop software for them.


In my personal daydream list is Chumby access to BoM derived weather  
and soaring forecasts :)


We have the relationships that make those outcomes possible. Its  
mostly a question of internal development priorities at this point.

Any plans to tie it in with purchased Broadband plans for a reduced cost?  I 
love the look of it and am about to move house.  And I'm skint :-)
