The Chumby (http://www.iaudiophile.net/forums/showthread.php?t=20684) is a touchscreen device that plays Flash games. It requires the same resolution and frame rate (and processor speed, roughly) as the D2. So many games made for the Chumby will work with the D2.

I have just had a very quick browse through the games at chumby.com and tried some on the D2. Here are a few that worked:

Crush the Critters by Mind Fool Games (http://www.chumby.com/xml/movies/D4E5E45A-85D4-11DC-8649-0030488CBE0D)
Memory Match by mschipper / learningplanet.com (http://www.chumby.com/xml/movies/0200E0DE-9165-11DC-B9DF-0030488CBE0D)
Line Game by Beastly Kings / EP (everybodypanic.org). (http://www.chumby.com/xml/movies/3F3A6840-D5D4-11DC-92D5-00156009DD9B)
Reversi by Chumby (http://www.chumby.com/xml/movies/3D152DB0-CAAE-11DC-8BC4-0016353B4502)
(right click and save target to get the swf file.)

If anyone else finds something good there, please post.

edit.. more:
Atomic Atoms by MyridoM (http://www.chumby.com/xml/movies/0A999F18-F076-11DC-A3D2-001635C47868) (very cool animation)
NIXIE Circuit Clock and Date by MyridoM (http://www.chumby.com/xml/movies/1CBECD72-E3B4-11DC-859E-0016353B0686) (One of the coolest clocks I've ever seen!)
Toasty (Countdown timer) by jforsythe (http://www.chumby.com/xml/movies/54502696-9B3E-11DC-A002-00146C833363) (WARNING: the alarm sound is VERY loud)
Moon Phase by dmaxwell (http://www.chumby.com/xml/movies/EF7B5026-2F35-11DB-8753-001372292121)(Only for the USA, however).
Virtual Drumkit by ChrisPirillo (http://www.chumby.com/xml/movies/5FC9885E-BDC2-11DC-A690-00156009DD9B)

Yes, I got that but how do I download the games from chumby's website?
It looks like the only way is to send it to a chumby.

Ah, well I'm sure there are multiple ways to grab swf files off websites.
I view the source of the webpage the find the embed tag. Then I copy the src parameter and put chumby.com in front of it. Then I put that in a dummy html file on my desktop as a hyperlink. Then I open that dummy html file and do a right click, save target as.

with firefox download this add-on:

https://addons.mozilla.org/it/firefox/addon/1993

it will find the .swf files and you can easily save them in the D2 [wink]

it seems it doesn't work with chumby...but it works indeed. You have only to change the name with a .swf extension.

just go go chumby.com, go to widgets, and search for them
use the firefox addon to download the games.
when saving, rename to .swf instead of .html

i don't know if it's just me, but none of these games seem to work smoothly..
some of them just don't play. the line game bugs out and just stops sometimes, and the moket grorbs one hangs forever and doesn't load :s
that normal?

the chumby uses a more advanced flash than the D2, so it is possible that some games are not working on the d2
