Yesterday, Pebble watch software was ~95% open source. Today, it’s 100% open source. You can download, compile and run all the software you need to use your Pebble. We just published the source code for the new Pebble mobile app!

I grabbed a banglejs a while back for cheap embedded funzies, and it's really stellar as a hackable companion device that you don't use much, or at least in fairly passive or niche ways. Espruino is really cool though, and that's the heart of the project.

I wonder how this compares as a higher-end (maybe only other?) FOSS watch, mostly on the battery/power ratio. I actually don't know much about the pebble design.

I've had Pebble watches for probably 14 years now? Let me know what you want to know.

I will say that I've had Garmin, Pixel, Samsung, and Fitbits and still prefer Pebble above all.
