Not a big fan of Apple launches either :) Still a proud owner of a 5S and by current estimates, will be till 7S+ or something like that :D

Thanks for the h/w comparison link. A bit relieved. But still wondering why they didn't give this option during their Kickstarter. I am sure many people would've bought a circular one, but they wont now because their Pebble T

Apple or Google announcing new flagship phones every year vs Pebble announcing a new watch in a matter of months ? Can't exactly draw parallels here. Something similar would be Apple announces iPhone 6S now and iPhone 6S+ in 3 months.

This is very weird tbh I mean you just shipped thousands of people something And now you announce something which makes that look old. It's scary to own something from a company like this. Am i to understand that I wont be getting upda

Isn't it easier to take risks when you are younger? So even if it's not sustainable, wouldn't it be better advised to do something with fewer chances of success early one in life ?

This is something that will be amazing to reverse engineer too actually. Something similar to bunnie taking apart the xbox.

It has a speaker built in. So they'll have that with Google Cast Audio, Google Now, etc. I am pretty sure they have a taken a leaf or two out of Amazons book.

An interesting thing that YC could do for hardware startups is provide discounted copies or license servers for some of the most commonly required but exorbitant softwares : Altium, Solidworks, Autodesk inventor among others.

PCB manufacturing and assembly is one part of the equation. The other important thing that we are missing out on (by not being wired into the whole Shenzhen scene) is the hardware that they have. The kind of chips they are using are not eve

Also worth watching is India. The newly elected PM has taken "Make in India" quite seriously. The world's largest democracy is gearing up for a huge manufacturing boom. Cheaper than the States, humane conditions, English as a

Assembling is being democratized, PCBs are being made available faster than ever, but that still doesn't level up with the ecosystem that is China. Especially, when you are prototyping. Link i posted in earlier comment points out exac

I know what you mean. I make development boards(Tah) out of India. But I understand that most of what I use comes some way or the other from Shenzhen. A lot many times there are things that I am using which probably are outdated in China.

I read it twice to see if there was any mention of the word 'Shenzhen'. It's difficult to not keep that in the loop, for a hardware startup anywhere in the world. Even SF.

This is great news. Should draw interest for startups in India, a lot more problems with scale to be solved here.

The company that I currently work for hired me without an interview. I was hired because I was coming to the meetups that they held at their premises for all most a year (I was a student then). We worked on some great open source projects,

True. I am really curious to see how the embedded Linux community i.e. the ARM community will reacts to this.I somehow don't see widespread adoption yet. x86 people, or the one's who haven't heard much of ARM will find this k

A good step forward. But will be tough to match the likes of Raspberry pi. Beaglebone Black will be hard to replace too. Given it's raw power and number of pins and interfaces
