So farewell then Sky Gnome – you’ve streamed audio from our Sky box to anywhere in the house since 2005 but now its time to pack your fishing rod and little red hat and shuffle off from the online Sky store. The broadcaster’s decided to pull the plug on the little pyramid of tech and withdraw it from sale. So unless you can find one on eBay there’ll be no test match cricket on the toilet, digital radio in the dining room or Sky News in the, er, scullery.But fret not, Sky’s promised that, ‘future launches will continue to offer more flexibility in accessing Sky.’ Could it be that Gnome 2.0 is on the way?EssentialsSky GnomeContact: SkyRelated stories:Early 2008 for Sky on your PSP Reviewed: Sky Gnome Sky’s Gnome brings TV sound and radio to every room
