Tell me about it... I had just short of eight grand invested in a mining company in north-of-finland, and it went bankrupt.
Trading was suspended and the stocks annulled. bummer.

Canadian owned (North American Gold Inc)Northland? or
Talvivaara? Both went south last year...You need to lose to win since we learn from mistakes.

So what have we learned by backing Jolla?

Please see my edit:

Do you really think it is a good reputation for a company?
Is it fair to have not payed Lastu?
To consume the 'donated' money for Lastu cases as well as for shipping (and also 64GB upgrade)? (not sure if that would really count as donations!)
and so on ...

--furthermore
I wondered why we do not have the tag "TabletGate"?
So I went to add it but was not allowed as maximum number of tags exceeded and I am not allowed to edit existing.
So I'd like to ask any tag creator to change his tag as I think that matches best.

Yep, Indiegogo campaigns are bullocks, and that one should not do any further dealings with Jolla, or any company recruiting its employees, current or former.

Well it would finally fit to rename the whole thread to "TabletGate" after New Years annoucement imho. @Dave999?

Whatever the compensation might be, i do not expect it to be a Tablet anymore and honestly, if asked whether to opt in for additional ~200€ to acquire a Intex whateverfish Device, i would happily do with both of my contributions.

I was trying to change the title to: TabletGate 2016

Unfortunately there is a limit of number of name changes or some mod ****ed up the thread badly. I guess we will never know the truth.

i havent really followed the whole tablet campaign or anything, but cant you just ask for refund? or will they ship tablets after 2016 finally? doesnt sound legal to just accept money and give nothing back

Fortunately this mystery can be solved:
you are only allowed to edit a thread's title for a specified amount of times (or a speficied date after thread creation, I always forget which one).
So now you need to ask politely to have this thread renamed by a moderator (e.g. by reporting your first post or PM).

«We might even have some positive surprises in stock for you. But more on that will follow, feel free to speculate!»
Lol, what? In other words "We screw you, but you'll get free candy. Wanna talk about it?"

Btw, I wonder would it be surprise like with special edition Jolla Phone for first wave, that became special TOH, that was just special colour and ringtone, which was sold at shop after all Or would be this surprise like promised opensourcing few years back?
I think if they fail on their promises so much, they need to do more than a "surprise" and moreover asking for people to be positive and speculate.
