Audrey is a cool little internet appliance that 3Com put out in the late 1990s. It failed miserably in the market, partialy due to its limited functionality and its rather large price tag, when every PC in the market was shooting to go under the $1,000 mark.
I picked up this Audrey second hand for very cheep. The only downside is that 3Com no longer supports the Audrey, so you have to hack it to get it to do basic things, like upgrade to the latest OS/tools. Thankfully, QNX has been really nice about letting images float on the web, and like many older toys there is a large fan base out there supporting the cause.
3Com and QNX are way cool!
