I have to admit, given that I now expect it'll be some months before I personally receive a Jolla tablet (and the phone just doesn't exist here), this is looking like an appealing way to come up with a usable Sailfish device (even if it looks like a frankenstein's monster ).




Here are some more links on this Pi "tablet":

EDIT 2: BTW, the video shows Sailfish running on a Pi connected to a touchscreen, but not this particular battery-powered Pi...

Here's a video of the actual "tablet" in action. Even better, it's being used to control an LED via the Pi's GPIO pins from a Python script running under Sailfish...

Hello guys!
Did you know if Sailfish will work on Raspberry Pi 3?
Or i really need a raspberry Pi 2 for it?
So, anyone here have any experience running Sailfish on a Pi?
