Re: Nokia signs brand and intellectual property licensing agreement with HMD global

I agree partially. I do agree that it is likely to be a cheap Chinese look-alike. Yes, UI/app customisation will be non-existing beyond plausible excuse for first device because of time-to-market and...

Re: The Future of Jolla's Tablet

I agree I took some liberty in describing the "role" of the guys in Jolla. Titles have indeed changed plenty of times. For example, Annikka has been until recently Chief Products Officer on...

Re: The Future of Jolla's Tablet

To run a business, you need:
a) customers
b) employees
c) money

Jolla got customers, maybe the most loyal ones out there, even more loyal than Apple fans.

here is a thought from somebody that knows plenty of the Jolla folks:

Re: The EPIC N9 anticipation thread

Why battery can't be removed? Design had higher priority. Naturally, care and maintenance centres know how to their job... nothing to worry.
