Chumby put their 802.11 onto the motherboard instead of using a USB
stick. So now they get to do FCC equivalent inspections in every
country.  If they had used a USB stick they could have piggybacked on
the stick's registrations.

Chumby only makes sense if you want to wall mount. It's well suited for that.

The Nokia's make good handheld remote controls. Mounting a Nokia in
the wall is probably going to have long term issues with the battery.
