Pebble e-Paper Smart Watch

Allerta intros Pebble smartwatch, inPulse's attractive younger sibling

A smart watch.  We have smart TVs, Smartphones, Tablets... now we have brains on our wrist.  As a gadget geek, I enjoy this type of news.  It seems great- eventually, you'll have no need to carry your ipod, your smart phone, your GPS around with you on a run.  All your apps will be available on your wrist.  Not only that, the watch interface will be as customizable as any android device.

This particular watch, Pebble, has received more than $10,000,000 in funding on Kickstarter, blowing it's modest goal of $100,000 out of the water.  Pebble receives call, email and message notifications from iOS and Android devices over Bluetooth. It supports downloadable watchfaces and activity-specific watchapps for controlling music, cycling, running and golfing. Allerta's even teamed up with Freecaddie to create a rangefinder app for over 25,000 golf courses worldwide. The timepiece can run several watchapps simultaneously -- these can be installed over Bluetooth using the Pebble App for iOS and Android
