Just to add to this, as it seems from KickStarter some people are taking issue with the lack of open software.
PineTime (and Bangle.js) use a touchscreen controller with a processor inside, and proprietary binary blob of firmware
Everything I have control over - the main firmware, the documentation, tools, apps, etc is Open Source.
Having some proprietary code is pretty much inevitable, but if that is a problem for anyone it's probably best that they don't back the project.
I don't understand this discussion as no one would change the low level firmwares of subcomponents. Most people don't know that they exist.
