Not very easy to find good-looking replacement bands
IOS functionality is limited
Voice function doesn't extend to Google Now or Siri

So far, Pebble's head start in the market and its savvy marketing have kept the company growing even in the face of some fierce competition. Pebble's fanbase, plus the dollars of underdog-loving contrarians, will all but ensure the economic success of...
