The sad part is, he wasn't always evil.
I've had mine since February. It's gotten quite a bit better since then, but the implementation still leaves a lot to be desired IMO, but being able to read texts and control music is quite handy. It's actually at its most useful notifying me of incoming calls when I've taken my phone out of my pocket and forgot to take it off silent.

I haven't had any real problems with scratches. At one time I thought I had scratched it pretty badly but after a good clean it disappeared. It's not spotless but it's much harder to pick up than little scuffs than, say, the low resolution of the e-ink display. I do wish it was significantly higher res.

Notifications on iOS needs a lot of work. I've had absolutely no problems with missing notifications or anything on standard iOS stuff, but 3rd party apps are a pain in the rear end. They work, but only if you a) pair the Pebble, b) select the app in notification centre, c) select a different notification style (eg. Banners instead of Alerts), and then d) set it back to what you actually want. If/when your Pebble loses connectivity, you have to do it all over again for each app.
