Well, if not jolla maybe something else like this is another possibility.

Not exactly ubuntu edge...but...
Also official ubuntu phone might be good if it comes out.
One more question. And I know this is off topic... Is Jolla actually selling many phones? Enough to keep in existence?

Yes I meant photon Q. It has installed sim card, but using some tech...it can be changed for any other sim card...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1929143
Or if you want guy from czech republic do it for you....
So Motorola Q photon is the only mobile phone with good qwerty keyboard...to be great successor of Nokia n900...but only with installed Jolla Sailfish....
Can anybody port Sailfish on this phone? I would like to do it..but I have no idea..how to do that....
How much time will it take? How much money for anybody who is able to do it?

[OT]
chances are it'll be less then 200€ by the end of the year
and of course nobody is going to start manufacturing OHs neither, thus forget about a QWERTY TOH
which brings us back to...
[/OT]
the Photon Q
got one on eBay (w/ Sim Mod as i'm not anywhere close to Sprint net...)
looks like only very few Android devices are actually supported and even that rather badly
except on the Nexus 7 hardly anything works but even there the GSM functions (all of them) don't work.
what a (bad) joke.
then again...
the only reason i use Jolla / Sailfish OS is to run a couple Android apps...
(my trustworthy N900 still is my primary... NOKIA)
run Sailfish OS on an Android device just for the sake of running a cpl Android apps with QWERTY (which, by the look of it, won't even work 'cuz... let's be honest, Jolla doesn't give a $h!t about QWERTY, do they?)
bottom line? time to move on.

Which will be a gimped experience even once it's all working, so I hope they hurry-up & start offering their devices in my region...
