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!

Also, it was revealed that Pebble will come with a magnetic charging cable, much like Macbook & Surface tablet.

Trust Stan Lee to steer clear of convention. The superhero creating legend of the comic world (he gave us Spider-Man, Iron Man, Thor, and many others, for those not too steeped in comic history) has stepped into casual gaming with Verticus – a $0.99 offering for iOS. And at a time when the world is going crazy into endless running games, he has decided to use the same concept. With a spin. Verticus, you see, is a game which is all about falling. The rationale is simple – an alien race called the Obliterators have found their way to the Earth’s core where they are building a machine that will destroy the world. There is only one way to save the day – don the suit of our fearless hero and fall towards the Earth, dodging mines and picking up coins, boosters and other articles the way, and then indeed tunnel to the very core of our planet and destroy the diabloical machine. Think of Verticus as Temple Run in reverse. You control the direction in which your charac
