Chumbye?

Engadget says the end may be near for quirky little Chumby. We have a Chumby in the kitchen, and wouldn’t it be nice if the service is maintained somewhere, so all those little Web radio alarm clocks keep working for a year or two more?

Update: From Venture Beat – “CEO Derrick Oien told The Verge that Chumby’s assets, which include widget technology, patents, and the platform, are being shopped around by a corporate trustee. The content and apps platform, however, will stay operational for the immediate future.”

  1. Oh no! Katie was just talking about her Chumby yesterday–she used it to quickly look up the weather while we were talking on the phone. She will miss it if it goes.
