What is the "pebble"?

Here is the . Is there any point to this? It's an MP3 player that can ONLY sync through your SGS3. I can't see any purpose to it. I take my phone to the Gym, no problem. Is anyone getting one?

I thought it was na A2DP adapter for you phone, so you could keep your phone docked or near you, or in your pocket but have player controls.

I thought it would be neat to go jogging with my phone in one of those armbands, but I need to take it out to skip to the next track or pause. With the Pebble, I can clip it on my shirt and keep my phone away. It will be cool, at the right price point (Not like the Moto Actv).

for me it'll work out GREAT! I work at a prison no cellphones allowed and the gym for staff
is inside. Plus when I go for my midday run in the 118 degrees of summer love we get here
in Arizona I don't have to stress if my GS3 is overheating in my pocket.

The original pebble was the Palm Pre.

Too bad they aren't around to sue Samsung LOL.

I dunno. I swear I heard the Palm Pre that's sitting in my desk drawer swearing obscenities last night.

They haven't announced pricing but I'm guessing its a waste of $100 dollars.

Its a pretty niche market accessory IMO.

For those using it as an MP3 Player, there are others that will probably be cheaper and sync with more things than your phone. I just don't see an advantage over them.

The ACTUAL Pebble (the one that was on KickStarter) seems pretty great, i've gotta say. If I could afford one, I would get one.

A way to listen to the music on my phone without using my phone battery seems like a win to me.

As for the Pre, I liked the pebble design if it wasnt for the outdated hardware and cheap plastic they mightve taken off. I wish Google wouldve bought them lol. But the Pebble seems nice.
