Insignia Infocast gets browser with creator?s blessing

With chumby founder Andrew “bunny” Huang actually giving instructions on how to hack Best Buy’s 8-inch Insignia Infocast “internet media display,” it comes as little surprise that someone has taken him up on the invitation. �chumby forum member Ken has got a WebKit-based browser running, together with a USB keyboard and touchscreen support, basically turning the Infocast into a (mains powered) tablet.


Instructions on how to do it yourself are here, and for the lazy – or confused – there’s a simple prebuilt file that can be loaded via a USB stick. �Apparently other people are working on porting a full Android installation over to the Infocast’s 800MHz ARM processor; not bad when you consider it costs just $169.99.
