coming soon, chumby one

Yes, the rumors are true.  In October, chumby industries will be launching the new chumby one.  It is every bit a chumby, but still a little different from the chumby classic that you know and love.  Obviously a different look and some other differences that we will soon tell you about, for example an optional battery capability.  The chumby one will only be available on chumby’s web site at www.chumby.com.  The price will be $99.95 during a brief pre-order period (you heard it here first), and after we start shipping (planned for end of October), the price will be $119.95 for single orders and $99.95 each for orders of 2 or more.  But don’t worry, chumby classic will not be going away, it will soon be back in stock in many colors.

So stay tuned here for more info about a new way to wake up to your internet life.

    I can’t WAIT!!!!! i just found out about chumby’s a while ago, and i can’t wait for a new version. I hope to develop some cool new widgets for it.

    I hope the new chumby one will be available in kit form as well.

  8. Kathrin Says:

    Please tell me you will be shipping this to the UK! Have been promising to get myself a Chumby for ages and the option to run from batteries makes it even better!


  9. […] are running a little crazy this month with the release of the chumby one coming up. Been wanting to blog about designing and building this one, but I’ve had to save […]


  10. Half the price? Really need to see a full specs listing so I can compare to my current chumby. Want to buy one for my wife but also can’t bare to hand her a device with missing features.

    Oh, ChumbyOne, where are youuuuu?

  14. Chris Says:

    I have spousal purchasing approval and everything, no small task this close to the holidays either…where are you Chumby One?

  15. SteveInChicago Says:

    When you re-release the Chumby classic, will it have the new bells and whistles on the Chumby One? I love the new features but really prefer the old design, even at a higher price.


  16. I wrote this in the blog a year ago:

    So when will we get Chumby 2.0 already? I’ve been putting off buying one because, well, it’s just WAY too cutesy for me. I know…it’s supposed to inspire love and devotion with its adorable little face and cuddly retro leather inserts…kinda like a puppy without the floppy ears. The spawn of a baseball and a hacky-sack. But that’s why I won’t buy one, eh? With the women I date, I have enough faux affection in my life. I just want my Chumby to deliver the goods in a sleek-looking Frogdesign case that doesn’t clash with the decor in my post-apocalyptic Bladerunner-style digs. I want it to serve up tasty widgets…not be my chum. By.

    Now…my wishes are finally fulfilled…

    And it only took a year! Thanks Chumby guys!
