Twitter-Enhanced Cuckoo Clock Chirps â and Tweets

,----[ Quote ]
| Baig modified the innards of the clock, which 
| has a touchscreen display with a controller 
| board and a Wi-Fi dongle. It also uses Chumby, 
| a hardware open source platform with a Linux 
| operating system.

Chumby One

,----[ Quote ]
| There are a few additions to the Chumby One,
| including an FM tuner, a much-needed volume
| knob, 2GB of internal storage, a slightly
| faster ARM-based CPU, and an optional lithium-
| ion battery (to keep the Chumby running even
| when the power is out). What went away? The
| second USB port (the Chumby One features just
| one powered USB port, suitable for charging
| devices) and the stereo speakers (the One is
| mono-only). The integrated accelerometer,
| touch screen, stereo audio jack, and snooze
| button remain the same.
