Chumby Wi-Fi widget

The peculiarly named Chumby is a standalone internet widget, providing access to your favourite web feeds.

It connects to the internet via Wi-Fi and, once you've set it up on your network, you can choose from more than 1,500 widgets that provide access to all areas of your online life, from Facebook and Twitter to eBay and Flickr.

The 3.5in screen is touch sensitive, so you simply prod it to tell it what to do and it even includes speakers so you can listen to streaming audio.

Chumby is available to pre-oder now for 139.99 from Firebox.
