It's near if you think several months is near. It's nowhere near near.

Sorry, jolla just trolling.

Didn't someone say (a while back) expect a release schedule similar to the N9: unveiled in summer, on sale late fall?

If that plays out, I predict Mobile Asia Expo in June for the launch.

NOTHING in that message point to ANYTHING saying its is near.

Again read what CEO has said in several interviews instead of bullish rumours.

I know exactly what Marc said, Thus I began with "Rumours"


What many are forgetting is that Jolla will have their phones and licensed devices. There is no reason they couldn't release a device running SailfishOS, it doesn't have to be Jolla branded phone, any phone manufacturer could do it.


Just a guess, release SailfishOS licensed phone, get feedback improve user experience then release the official Jolla branded phone. Doesn't sound impossible does it?

Didn't Jolla already say they will announce the phone before May? They had stated Q1 previously.

From the interview Jolla's CEO Mark Dillon gave to Whiteboard Mag, it seems that Jolla will probably launch it's own flagship device under the Jolla brand to begin the momentum for Sailfish: “So we knew that the timing was right to create a new OS – but our experience also told us that we would need a flagship device. Because that’s how you get interest for the OS.” See, http://www.whiteboardmag.com/jolla-c...ng-the-people/

But however it's marketed, it's Jolla's software plus the OEM's hardware, right?

I wish Jolla would give us Sailfish on our N9 devices so we can BETA test the OS and provide them feedback. That would be a win-win situation.

Jolla will be very reluctant to do this. After all, a lot of folks might decide that instead of buying the new Jolla phone, they might just keep their N9's running Sailfish for free.

Seems like company called Infiniti is behind the Jolla phone design.

What about Creoir?
