UPDATE (17/07/2009): Chumby has just released software 1.7.1, and have fixed the codes for the Apple USB Ethernet Adapter. The following should no longer be required for software 1.7.1. It now works 'out of the box'. Since Chumby unleashed their new software 1.7, I've gotten a few emails...

UPDATE (01/07/2009): If you have updated your Chumby to software version 1.7, see this post to get it working instead.

The router connects fine to his Mac wirelessly, but for some...

Some of you may know that I hate fanboys, whether they're Mac, Linux, Sony or whatever. I don't mind if your passionate about a particular company, in fact that's a great thing and if I startup, or work for a company, I'd be honoured to have such people.

Engadget's managed to get their hands on the new Samsung F700 , you know, the iPhone-like phone but with a QWERTY keyboard and 3.5G. They've also managed to get their hands on the new glofiish (or E-TEN if you know them by their previous name) X800 , which is packed with everything you could possibly...

Apple and Google working on projects together . Oooh, guess Apple needed something to keep the iPhone hype up.
