@scanlime I believe it's selective wave soldered, common for high-volume electronics in Asia. A physical mask defines regions to hit.

Just received an Amazon delivery in SF from two guys in a sedan: one drives door to door, the other runs the box over and hits the doorbell.

@chadzeluff critically Pebble watches have always-on screens and long battery life. The Apple Watch has neither and is thus of limited use.

@chadzeluff Yes, e.g. it tells me how long I have until my next meeting, where it is and how long (with current traffic) to get there.
