Remember the Pebble smartwatch? It has managed to cross the $10 million mark even though its authors hopped to raise just $100,000. That, however, hasn’t helped them ship the product on time and as far as we know it should start hitting backers in “early 2013.” Even before that, it will be showcased at CES when we hope to see it in some real-world action.
If you recall, this watch has an e-ink based screen, allowing it work longer than any other smartwatch out there. Moreover, Pebble also supports apps, enabling various customization options through a dedicated iPhone or Android app. Yup we want one, but first we want to test it out and we’re hoping Pebble folks want to lend us a unit for review. We’ll make sure to get back to you with our impressions as soon as we can. Stay tuned to our CES coverage…

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
