Very disappointing. I've been promoting Everpix to my friends and family, and had paid for an annual plan myself.

Will need to hunt down a new alternative.

Re:Show HN: Version 1.1 of our $99 hackable Bluetooth smartwatch on Tuesday November 29, 2011 @01:27PM (#3291481)
The Motorola Motoactv http://www.motoactv.com is an Android watch targeted to runners, so it has ANT+ as well as GPS and Bluetooth. Though it's much more expensive ($249), and doesn't have an open API. It pairs with Android phones and displays texts and lets you take calls with your headset.

That said, I have one, and use it for running and love it.

Hoping this proposal gets further.
