Canadians can now pre-order Pebble Time from Best Buy

The other day, Best Buy started accepting pre-orders in the U.S. for the new Pebble Time smartwatch on an exclusive basis. Pebble raised a record $20 million on Kickstarter for the device, which now has a color e-paper display and a much improved OS. The timepiece will also allow you to load as many apps on the watch as will fit. The original Pebble and Pebble Steel could only hold eight apps at one time. Best Buy is pricing the timepiece at $199.99 each.

Today, Pebble Time can now be pre-ordered north of the border, in Canada. Priced at the equivalent of $203 USD, the watches are available in black, white and red. Shipping is free.

Best Buy expects to ship the Pebble Time in Canada no later than July 27th. At 9.5mm, the watch is 20% thinner than the original Pebble and features a battery that will last up to seven days between charges. Like the original, Pebble Time supports both the iOS and Android platforms.
