I might care about their product enough to buy it, but it's looking less and less likely the more details are revealed. So again, I have to wonder why they would start announcing vague stuff when they know they'll only disappoint in the end?
That's basically it. They are trying to please everyone instead of making a no compromise device that fits at least one niche. You have to wonder though. If it's supposed to be an open source device, and every single person at Jolla has been working with Maemo/MeeGo for years, why don't they come here and tell us what they are up to? It's not like Nokia will come and bite them in the *** if they did. Nokia couldn't care less.

Why don't they set up an alternative site? A jolla.org?

Everything is pointing in the wrong direction. Sad but true.
