So do you think "ships in May" means they start sending out units May 1 or maybe they begin a first run sometime in Q3 May

Those of you without tracking numbers, you might have one hidden in your Kickstarter backer page where your info and color selection are. View Source on that page and search for tracking, it'll be near that (there's two fields, one for Pebble Time tracking and one for Pebble Steel tracking).

Yeah, it's still null.

They said we'd all have tracking numbers by mid June. Guess not

Got mine. Impressed with screen quality in direct sunlight, not so much with backlight. Strap feels cheap though. Anyone know where I could get nicer ones?

So what's the good GPS app for this thing? Relaying the route to my wrist and all that, without having to glance at my cellphone.

Is there such a thing as quick release nato straps? If so, where could I get them? I can't see myself trying to replace the band with a regular nato strap because I'm clumsy as all hell.

So did the latest update of the app completely break it for anybody else?

Why come I can't find an app that will prevent the phone from requiring my pin to unlock when my watch is nearby

So how reliable is the pebble time for counting calories and tracking sleep and stuff? Thought you needed the fancy metal diodes and bright green lasers stuff like fitbit and basis have in order to do that. And does using a nato band affect any of that stuff?

I dig the hr monitor but I guess that means nato straps are useless now.
I'm not backing this, though. I'll stick with my Time and wait until the price on the Time 2 inevitably drops a lot some time in spring.

I like the look of the regular Pebble 2 more than the Time 2. Wish it had a color screen but I guess that would defeat the entire purpose.

So I bit the bullet and preordered a Time 2, despite liking the Pebble 2's design better because I understand that all smartwatches are beep boop toys for ugly powernerds and whoever says otherwise is fooling themselves.

That's a drat shame because I really like my time but at least I'll get my money back
Now to look for a decent cheap alternative with as good battery life and customization options

I wonder how badly the pebble people are haunted by the fact they didn't sell to citizen for a stupid high amount instead of the nickles they sold to fitbit for

Target has Pebble 2 for $40 and I was so tempted but I understand the thing isn't as good as a fitbit at keeping track of health?
