Google agreed to release Pebble OS to the public. As of Monday, all the Pebble firmware is available on GitHub, and Migicovsky is starting a company to pick up where he left off.
The company — which can’t be named Pebble because Google still owns that — doesn’t have a name yet. For now, Migicovsky is hosting a waitlist and news signup at a website called RePebble. Later this year, once the company has a name and access to all that Pebble software, the plan is to start shipping new wearables that look, feel, and work like the Pebbles of old.
Sweet. Time to fuck up my og pebbles tryna replace the batteries.
Hear me out:
This is what I want from Smart Glasses. Just a couple lines of text in a heads-up display. No cameras, no AR overlay, just a couple lines of text.
Please, someone…
The pebble was the best smartwatch of all time
Me, when I fall off my bike while looking at the map on my pebble
i haven’t stopped using mine and never even needed to use my backup pebble I bought in 2018, looking forward to whatever they come up with
Tbh might keep using the old ones bc my favorite thing about it is there are no servers it can even talk to anymore, but still
Hell yeah. Could be fun to dick around with the code and see if I can customize it.
Sick!
