Pebble Smart Watch Starts Shipping on Jan 23 [Gallery]

By -
The much awaited (and delayed) smart watch of the year 2012, Pebble, will finally be shipping to the Kickstarter backers starting January 23rd 2013. At its press conference at CES 2013 in Las Vegas, the Pebble CEO publically unveilled the smart watch and we got to play around with the watch enough as you can see in the gallery below.
The ePaper smart watch was a runaway Kickstarter success in 2012, with over $10 million in pledges from 85,000 backers across the world. The watch missed multiple shipping dates due to delays in production, resulting in furore from the backers. Being a backer myself, I heave a sigh of relief to know that Pebble will be shipping soon. Having seen and held the watch from close quarters, I feel more than happy to have waited this long!
