If you've always wanted a Chumby but couldn't get past it's $200 price tag (it's actually been slashed to $150, while the Chumby One goes for $120), perhaps the new Internet Clock Radio from Altaz is more your speed. With a street price of around $90 shipped, it's cheaper than a Chumby.
Altaz equipped its device with a 3.5-inch touchscreen with a 320 x 240 resolution. Internet radio is obviously part of the mix, as well as the ability to play MP3s, scroll through JPEG photos, and play MPEG videos. Other features include built-in 802.11g Wi-Fi, 128MB of internal memory, an SD card reader, and a 5v mini-USB connector.
The device is available now.
