I guess that goes to show what I know about the watch market. One of the other guys who responded with a bunch of watch manufacturers had the gall to accuse me of blabbering, when I barely understood half the words he said.

At any rate, I don't think the smartwatch market is getting more competitive. All we're seeing is the same watch being released over and over again by Samsung, Motorola, LG, and Apple. Exact same watch. Touchscreen (for no reason), all glass and metal (when we have that on phones, we wrap it in plastic and rubber), and a 12 hour battery life. They're putting a smartphone on your wrist, but worse. There's no one competing with Pebble, who is developing actual smart watches.

They had the Pebble Steel, and there's nothing saying they won't make a Steel version of this one, too.
