I agree with the open source not being viable business model. Though there was comment from Jolla that more than 200 000 phones would keep them alive, i don't see that impossible if the product will be actually good What gives me some hope about Jolla is that these people at least seem to understand the market and know what it needs to get phone out to the market. Proof of that would be if they truly could release device before years end, something that would be quite mind boggling for company like this. If they can nurse the economy, community and can actually give us something amazing they might have niche covered. There's some truth on what the CEO said that the hardware is easy these days as most of the manufacturers just go shopping for the chips. Jolla wont of course ever have things like PureView or custom chips like Samsung.
