I hacked my Chumby to make it automatically dim at night so it doesn't light up the entire bedroom. Used a parallax propeller board to do it. More details somewhere on my website at http://www.smbaker.com/

  • @palauskas: yes, I agree the prop is overkill. I probably could have done it with a little PIC and perhaps even stuffed it into the chumby case somewhere. However, the prop really is a joy to program!
