Quick @pebble project update! I'm also working on a longer blog post with lots more details, updated images of Core Time 2, etc. And I will hopefully pair that with a Tick Talk epp! Thread...

Tariff cost for US orders is ~$10 per Core 2 Duo. Non-US orders do not have any US tariffs since we ship direct from Hong Kong to rest of world, but since we are shipping 'prepaid' (DDP) you will be charged your country's Taxes/VAT during order confirmation.

PebbleOS - things are going quite well - we're currently focused on Bluetooth reliability, fixed some major bugs this week with the help of @codecoup_pl (thank you!). Things are fairly stable now (🤞) - battery life is still unoptimized in PebbleOS, but we've verified that the hw can hit 30+ days

- major things that we haven't started working on yet: health (step/sleep) tracking, speaker API, magnetometer/barometer

iOS/Android Mobile app - we published a new batteries-included open source library github.com/coredevices/... - our app (built with lib) is being tested by some willing and brave souls - good news! Our new app will support your old Pebbles as well. No more sideloading the 10 year old Pebble app!

What audio codec will be used in open source PebbleOS? I looked through the code but couldn't find anything regarding the codec yet. Speex again or maybe Opus?

what would you prefer? No one has started this yet, great little thing for someone to work on 😉
