Why shell out your savings for a new smart television when, for a fraction of the price, you can let a Chumby NeTV stream social network updates and the Internet onto your set?
Because technology develops so quickly, it's difficult to keep up to date while maintaining the stability of your bank account. This tough reality is what makes the Chumby NeTV so valuable. Acting as a middle man between your television set and the cable box, this device pushes your social network, Android apps and even Internet connectivity onto the screen. A smooth interface that includes social updates, emails and your favorite blog is superimposed onto the cable feed and disappears at the touch of a button.
Even the decrepit jumping box my grandparents grew up with is compatible with the Chumby NeTV!
