PC Magazine have published a review of the Chumby One internet streaming device. 'While the original Chumby ($149.95 direct, ), with its soft and squishy casing had an undeniable "cute" factor, the all-plastic Chumby One sheds the padding and shrinks some to 4 by 3.5 by 3.5 inches (HWD)--it's less cute and more boring. With a thin blue trim around the front panel, the otherwise white Chumby One has a mono built-in speaker on the top and back panels, a single, multi-purpose button on its top, a volume knob on the right, and a 3.5-inch touch-screen LCD on its front face. There's also a built-in accelerometer, but I had trouble finding any movement that actually triggers it. The Chumby One comes with an AC adapter that plugs into the rear panel, next to the USB port, headphone jack, and power button. There is no aux input.'
