That would be a move that makes double damages on Jolla: on the tablet customers front and on the prospective candidates of the new Jolla Adventures business accelerator program.

No chance, what about if due to circumstances beyond my control, I want my money back?

Saarnio gave an interview for mobiili.fi [in Finnish]. A clip translated to English:

"We have for now got a very small amount of devices off the ground. When we otherwise got late, we also got late in terms of component orders", Sarnio explained about the lasting delays of tablets for mobile.fi.
So they are experiencing part shortages.

I've heard some rumors about the Intel mobile SoC being surprisingly hard to come by, at least compared to ARM SoCs.

But that would be pretty weird if true, given how hard Intel appears to be pushing in the mobile area.

Ahoy Sailors!
Well, um, the seas have been a bit rough of late with some issues in regards to supplies. You know, the usual stuff. Shortage of parts, delays, quality control issues, and a few price increases here there. As we would love to ship your tablet to you as soon as possible, we are going to need for all of you sailors to send us $50 more. Otherwise our ship may indeed capsize in these heavy seas. We hope this does not cause any inconvenience to any of our highly valued sailors.

Best regards and keep on sailing!
Your Jolla Crew


EDIT: So there is no confusion, this is not a real email. Just a hypothetical.
Yes. Tax is required for shipment. So yeah.we will pay the 50 bucks even if it would be fair if jolla covered that part to keep supporters.

Thanks for the bad news. I'm going to hide the Jolla tablet to one very dark corner, left alone for one year untouched and forgot owning it.
So by 2017 I have an Christmas present ready .

Regarding charger. Bought a new phone yesterday. Asked if the box including charger. Answer was no. So I said I not gonna buy the phone. As a proper salesman. We can include a charger for free OC.

Jolla...could learn something here.

You could do the same with Jolla Tablet if you'd buy it from the same shop. You can't really bargain in online shops, can you?

Why not?
I usually just call the webbshop. You can do it before. But it's better to first put the order and if the don't help you...simply cancel.
