I went for the $129 option (plus $15 shipping to the UK). I've just switched to WP8 (Lumia 920) and have a wireless charger. The standard Bluetooth (not just BLE) and WP8 support are the killer features compared to a Pebble as far as I'm concerned. And being able to code for the watch rather than just communicate with it I hope.

With rumours of watches from both Apple and Microsoft the market is starting to look a little busy these days.

I make Windows Phone stuff for beer money and rent (in order of priority). I've got a blog and am on the Twitter machine.

I must have missed that. Although that's the level of awesome I'm expecting from a Secret Labs watch.

Doesn't look like that's going to be a problem based on the current total. I had to back one to continue on my accidental conquest to own every Secret Labs product...

Just passed the $100,000 mark. We're making AGENT!
We're a bit at a loss for words at the moment. So many people sharing in our vision, making it happen.
Thank you. Thank you.
This is going to be one awesome journey.

Congratulations on the success of AGENT. I gave a blistering response to this news release out of concern for a great product (the Netduino) getting pushed aside for another idea. Chris gave a reassuring and reasonable response as to why the company took this step. So with that said I am wishing you great success with this product and I really hope it takes off. It looks promising and if it is done with the same care and ingenuity taken with the Netduino products I see a bright future for the AGENT.
I don't know if I will be sporting one soon (The geek in me will probably win out and I will get one) but I can see many others will. So again Congratulations.

Hi khmesmer,
Thank you so much for the nice note. We're so excited.
The generous backing on Kickstarter is going to enable a few upgrades for backers (to things that don't affect deliver date--no changing the circuitry). If we can hit some fairly high numbers (10x goal, for instance) that will let us hire additional staff too--and those staff can do dual-duty, like holding AGENT+Netduino hackathons around the country
We're really excited about AGENT and about Netduino--and the success of both should mean even more good things for both product lines. Thank you all so much for your support.
Chris
