not to mention that the 'prototype' is one ugly looking piece of kit (yeah, I said 'kit' )

and I doubt it could even run Angry Birds
Yeah, the project is more or less dead I'm afraid. But the idea is tempting - being able to DIY build your phone using available components, more or less like you can assemble your PC.

A nice statement from the man who was destined to be CEO till Stephen Elop arrived: https://twitter.com/anssivanjoki/sta...49337497882624


How I wish he hadn't resigned and carried on...

This is freedom. Does not have Angry Birds though, so the freedom has a bitter taste
chances are, until Jolla starts selling any device (if ever...) N900 is the closest we ever got to an "open sourced" platform

Jolla ain't gonna be that open either. Especially if they're having to license the bits we know about.

And the N900 wasn't fully open either. That trend of exaggerating that needs to end now.

Not semantics when it is not fully open. To change one word to suit your needs is not semantics. That's just improper communication.
