    Is it though? Nearly 10 years ago they were going to sell them in retail for 200$, now it is 225$, and its going to be so much better. My time steel lasted for so many years… And it was wonderful, I miss it so much. After the battery started to get too weak I started the search for an alternative, there’s so little offering what pebble offers. Ended up with a Garmin, which is… OK, but the price makes me nearly consider it not worth it, around two years ago it cost me 350€, and it was the cheapest version. It’s probably great for super sporty people, but I just want a basic watch that helps me get notified and check a bunch of things.

    In my opinion what pebble offers is incredibly good for the price, specially compared with what there is in the market currently.


  • I love the changes they have done. I loved the pebble time steel, and personally the design of pebble time 2 was not my thing and I was devastated that pebble time 2 was dropped. This new design manages to marry the pebble time 2 and the pebble time steel incredibly well. And the color options seem really great actually… It’s going to be difficult to choose.

    And furthermore, it is a relief to have again the metal buttons. I’m going to have to dig out the time steel to see if I can use it to test the new version to see if I can get back to developing some watchfaces.

    You must be acting all offended on purpose… There is no way from his post that you get the idea that he wants you to work for him. And even if that were the case, if you don’t want to provide advice then why comment? Why are you losing your valuable time here instead of working?

    Your comparison is flawed in so many ways… He hasn’t asked anyone to come and cook for him. Following your comparison, he has gone to a community called restaurantfood where there’s a lot of people interested in food and many working with restaurants asking for advice if someone has any to offer on how to improve his menu at his restaurant to provide healthier and better food to his customers.

    Providing some advice, specially about free software is not the same as working. Why are you in a community of people sharing information and knowledge of Linux if your only objective is to earn money? Do you get paid for your help to other users? Do you think the only allowed people in this community are the ones that won’t profit off of Linux? Because it seems you do…
