Pebble is poised to start shipping its smartwatch, company founder Eric Migicovsky announced at CES on Wednesday. The device — a wristwatch that connects wirelessly with Android smartphones and the iPhone — was a sensation when it was featured on Kickstarter early last year, raising more than $10 million. The Pebble watch is in mass production now and will start shipping on Jan. 23. At a manufacturing rate of 15,000 per week, the watches will reach Kickstarter backers in six to eight weeks. People who placed preorders are next on the list for delivery.
