http://www.getinpulse.com/apps/ping_stat/

This app displays a clock and the contents of a pulseprotocol notification. This app comes with a host-side python app that pings a given domain and sends the ping information to the watch once a minute.

After loading PingStat on your watch, you can set the time on your watch by issuing: "python tools/set_time.py". Then you can start the python host-side app and ping your wrist to your hearts content!

The provided simulator package is missing an __init__.py file in the examples/featured_apps/Ping Stat/tools directory, which results in an import error trying to run the ping stat tool:

~/pulse_simulator/examples/featured_apps/Ping Stat$ python py_ping_stat.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "py_ping_stat.py", line 1, in <module>
import tools.bt_python.pulseprotocol as proto
ImportError: No module named tools.bt_python.pulseprotocol

Thanks for the heads up.
We'll get that fixed tomorrow and post pulse_sdk version 1.0.1.
