Half of staff will be on forced leave (temporary halt in jobs and salaries as an alternative to layoffs) because of financial troubles. Doesn't look good.
I am not surprised. As stated already it is bussiness that means income is needed.

Smart raise the price same day as above announced. Maybe some supporters buy one if they had not seen the price was dropped below last week.

I'm wondering if I should buy a second Jolla phone as a spare part in case everything goes south with Jolla Ltd and my current Jolla phone gets broken.

It was over when Marc left. It would be like Bill leaving MS or Steve leaving Apple to find new opportunities, those people don't leave a promising company or one that still has fight.

A true shame, I was in Helsinki and had a great weekend but as my Jolla has been in a boot loop with no help form them I they lost my custom. Sailfish 2.0 was a year too late and much as I tried I could never get ordinary people to see what the phone was about.

I actually contributed, and to the follow-up. So if anyone goes to Greece. You can pick up a bottle of Ouzo

Seriously. I just twitted Jolla to convert my order to donation. Not much, but ... I hope they will continue.

Well, I paid extra for the 64GB model, I paid extra for the latsu case. Maybe Jolla should offer some other accessories, at a slightly elevated price, to keep afloat. I know! Many folks complained about the lack of this. How about a charger for $75. If everyone bought one, would that be a sufficient lifesaver to toss them to keep from sinking?
Seriously, how much money do they need raise to continue?

With 10-12k orders, each would have to order 0$ cost accessory for 50$ to give them another month, financing a company for return is a bit different order of numbers than IGG/KS

I suggested long ago they should sell T-shirts etc, easy money.

I wonder what happens with the Lastu case now? Do we get that bad boy as a little trophy of failure?
