”CBS, MTV and MySpace Get Chummy With Chumby Network
While chumby has been available in beta for a while and we had our hands on the final version last week, today is the official public launch of the little Wi-Fi beanbag, as well as the Chumby Network, with big media content partners CBS, MTV, The Weather Channel, AOL Shoutcast, Scripps and more.

This little palm-sized WidgetStation that we reported on two months ago is for real, and was demonstrated at CES.
