UPDATE 2018: Sony has discontinued support for the Dash. Chumby has made available firmware you can use with their service instead. From what I understand if you connect this unit to the internet now it will attempt to download new firmware from Sony that makes it function as a stand alone digital alarm clock.
For Sale- This is a "personal internet viewer" touchscreen app device. Also known as the Dash Information Alarm Clock.
Works 100%. Very little wear. Original power supply included. Sharp video, good audio, good touchscreen. Connects using Wifi to server, downloads apps, plays NetFlix movies, internet radio, webcams, etc. Internet browser is built in. There are apps on the Sony site for Gmail, Facebook, Twitter, newsfeeds, etc. etc. You can download different themes, clock faces, games, etc. View YouTube videos, free movies, etc. No fees unless you use Hulu Premium or NetFlix or similar stuff.
