Don't you think the fact that their product didn't live up to their own hype was the reason their subsequent campaigns didn't product sufficient funding?

Even before they slinked out of the industry their product won't connect properly to iOS.

I think your glowing characterization that their users "loved them" was overblown.

I never had any problems with the Pebble Time and every Pebble user I talked to was very happy with them. Though I have to admit I think most people I talked to were using Android phones, so maybe it's not representative?
