The Chumby One (http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/13/chumby-one-review/), much like the original (http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/16/chumby-goes-on-sale/), is an interesting beast. For all intents and purposes, it's a mod-friendly box that sits on your nightstand and pushes out real-time information that it pulls down from the web. That said, the inbuilt display may be too small to be considered "glanceable" in some scenarios, and if you're ferociously nodding your head up and down in agreement, we've a hack you should probably see. One xobs recently discovered that a composite video output could be added to the Chumby One, enabling it to output its information onto any display with such an input. Granted, the device can only support a single display at a time, but hey, who ever said you could have your cake and eat it too?Chumby One gets composite video output via marginally difficult mod (http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/28/chumby-one-gets-composite-video-output-via-marginally-difficult/) originally appeared on Engadget (http://www.engadget.com) on Mon, 28 Dec 2009 13:33:00 EST.
