But starting March, the company will finally start delivering the watch to some 140,000 backers -- including Stevie Wonder himself, the company claims.

A smaller batch of 1,000 units will go on retail shelves in London, for $320 too. (The price will vary a little depending on country.)
If you vaguely remember something that resembled the Dot floating around the internet, it could've been the Dot itself -- in an early iteration that resembled a Fitbit more than a watch.

Dot has signed a $1 million agreement with Kenya’s government to bring 8,000 units of its upcoming Dot Mini, an educational braille reader, with an aim to be sold below cost for around $200 each.
It also has plans in cooperation with Google for a 2018 launch of the Dot Pad, a tactile Kindle-like ereader that will display shapes and images through tactile buttons, that could help with learning math or even art.
