Customer Review: Sending This One Back
I was very disappointed in this product. I bought it on sale and loved the idea of having a touch screen option. When I brought it home, opened the packaging, I realized that all I had to do was plug it and go. The think was I couldn't go. The screen was not reacting to touch. I did notice the same thing at the store, but I thought that the sample product was just messed with too much. Not the case, my brand new one is the same way, none reactive. The screen seem to freeze on the menu. I turned it off after several minutes, tried again and the same thing happened. I again, turned it off and packaged it back up and I will be getting a different model. Very disappointing.
Customer Review: not recommended
The frame is nice looking and the touch screen borders were the selling point. However, the touch controls were very slow in response. The screen would freeze up and sometimes it would not read the memory card. Perhaps we might have gotten a defective one, but we returned it to Amazon and will purchase one with a more reliable remote control.


You have never seen a device like this. Call it a toy, a clock, a picture frame or a web appliance, it is a combination of all of these.

Chumby is a compact device, an integration of several facilities, that displays useful and entertaining information from the web, such as news, music, weather, photos, celebrity gossip, webcams, sports scores. You can choose from a number of widgets offered in different categories. Interactive widgets can be used to take benefits of its touchscreen or motion sensor.

Chumby will connect to your wireless Internet router using Wi-Fi and fetch all types of content from the Web. Chumby is neither designed for web surfing nor for two-way communication like e-mail and instant messaging. It is all about an overblown Web 2.0 fascination with software widgets, open-source idealism, and building a new community around them.

Chumby is soft all around except for its touchscreen and a rear panel with a power button and ports for USB connections and the power cord. On top, there's a button hidden under the soft leather that you squeeze to control certain functions.
