As an anecdotal story of one, I know someone who has the currently out new pebble and they're already looking to replace the buttons.

Yikes, that sounds awful. I know that was an issue on the old Pebbles, and the ones that are out have some old hardware. The Pebbles that aren't out yet don't share any parts, so presumably this won't happen to them.
