Pebble Smartwatch Set for Potential Comeback with Open-Source Software

Founder Eric Migicovsky and a small team are developing new hardware based on PebbleOS, following Google's release of the smartwatch's open-source code.

Google has released the open-source code for PebbleOS, enabling community-driven updates and development for the discontinued smartwatch.
Eric Migicovsky, Pebble's original founder, is working on a new Pebble-like smartwatch that adheres to the core principles of the original device.
The new smartwatch is expected to feature an always-on e-paper display, long battery life, physical buttons, and a hackable platform for custom apps and watch faces.
Migicovsky aims to avoid past challenges by keeping the project small, sustainable, and focused on essential features rather than broad market appeal.
There is no confirmed release date yet, but interested users can stay updated through the Repebble website.
