I admire Pebble as a company and a product, but are you still an underdog once you've raised 30 million?

  If you're up against companies with centi-billion cash reserves, yes.

    If you raise $30 million, you have a centi-billion cash reserve :-) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centi- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centi- vs http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hecto- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hecto-)

  Raising $30m and selling $30m of product are different things. That said, Pebble has raised more than $30m [1]. [1] https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/pebble https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/pebble

    Not really. Crowdfunding on kickstarter isn't "raising money." It's presales. It's revenue. They've raised 15mil, and had 2 really successful kickstarter projects.

      Correct. I should have scanned the sources.
