Pebble was bought out by Fitbit, who got bought out by Google. I had the kickstarter Pebble and felt Eric did an awesome job. But really it was the Apple watch that killed Pebble in the marketplace tbh.
No, it’s selling it. The sale itself isn’t what killed it.
Companies/IP/Products get sold to other entities all the time, many continue on. What you’re upset at is the aftermath of the sale, so until such an event happens here I don’t see any reason to be concerned.
And, from what I recall, selling was the best option. They over extended themselves with the pebble color and steel and we’re going to go out of business anyway. I really miss my pebble though.
Pebble didn’t abandon itself, it was sold to Google who killed it.
The time to worry is if/when Beeper gets acquired.
