Just to let you all know when I asked about the Sailfish launcher for Android I got a large amount of negative comments on xda forums and negative Karma on together.jolla.
So do not ask when the launcher will come out or any details because you will become public enemy #1 and I have no idea why.

I'm disappointed to the android launcher situation generally. IMHO they are all copies of the same user paradigm and differing from each other only by the amount of the basic options they offer. There have been some with more idea to them, but those have vanished without reaching any kind of stable status.

@Dave999
yes they said all that, but at the same time they managed to deliver something important as well. Do not forget that there is a hostile environment for newcomers, look at the first Ubuntu mob attempt.
the most important thing is jolla to stay alive, bug fixes and upgrades will come. at the moment I spend €399 to get the device and I cannot afford to get another phone soon.

I'm lucky when I get a 3G signal in Germany, and people are talking about LTE here, which is known to suck battery like crazy, is data-only, and virtually non-existent.

And doesn't the phone have to be connected to 3G/4G at the same time, because with 4G only, you couldn't make plain phone calls, as it's data-only, and IP-telephony not yet deployed in the mobile space?
I just don't see any benefit of LTE in 2014 yet, except for bringing broadband to rural areas where no DSL or cable network is available, and that is not a phone use-case.
