In what context was he referring to "engine"?

taking a wild guess, he means something like the engines of the firefighters? which means they will grow region by region?

I take it to mean he's talking about their SoC partner, sigh, I hope it's not STE*, we had the strongest hints it was for the longest time.
If it is them, I hope they can somehow manage to "keep their head above water" & be a good supplier/partner.

*or whatever they're called now

Nokia doesn't make any SoCs as far as I know, so he couldn't mean Nokia.

I doubt they have resources for that. It could cost more than a billion, and they are a tiny startup.

LOL if those big companys like ericsson, nokia.or huwai doesn't think the SoC is worth continue development it would be plain stupid dir a startup company to buy the SoC. And btw where should they get the money? AFAIK jolla will start search for more capital in june. So we doesn't even know if jolla survives 2014.

they first have to release something that success then they may start think about "buy something"
