It is a dying market
2) Why would i want one? To read an SMS that i can already read on my smartphone?
3) yet another device that i have to keep charged and then replace the battery when it dies
4) what is the must have app? An exercise tracker? Maybe but i doubt it..
5) It looks like it is big when people want small, thin and “cool”

Who are you marketing this too?

19-29 male gadget must owners who are exercise fanatics. This seems like a very thin market segment.

I remember when they presented at a “RedWire” event in Toronto (now known as Sprouter) with their Blackberry compatible watches. The Pebble is light years ahead and I only see good things coming for the team!
