Have a new toy I want

I did not like the original design, and thought my husband was crazy for wanting one so bad ... but now I really want one. I will give you a clue on what I am looking at. It is a piece of technology for your wrist.
If you guessed the Pebble Watch, you would be correct!

My husband first fell in love with the Pebble when it was on Kickstarter. I could not STAND the look of it and for the life of me, couldn't figure out why he would want one!

They looked cheap and not my style. They were large and (in my opinion) gaudy. However, they have made some changes, and I really like the changes made.

You can see the new Pebble Steel is smaller, thinner, and has a classier band. MUCH more my style. Unfortunately, they are an extra $100 and since my phone is basically fried, I have to wait. Bummer.

The battery can last for a week without charging AND it is waterproof enough that you can wash your hands without removing it. They are almost on back order and they don't even get released until the end of this month! The best part about the Pebble Steel is not only will it run Pebble apps (which I want for the Runkeeper), it also works with Android (and iOS for Apple fans).

So, will I get one? Hopefully later this year. =)
