I don't think anything would kill me more than if they fumbled the hardware.

Personally, if they just carbon-copied the N950 I think they'd have asolid base, better processor, hdmi-out, hdscreen, and micro-sd, then I don't think anyone here could possibly say no.

Deal-breakers:
Pentile display.
ANYTHING proprietary (charger, memory, etc.)

What are your dealmakers, and what're your deal-breakers?

We sure do want to be able to remove the battery, I remember with my old symbian phone when they crash removing the battery always fixed the issue But I can't recall a single time where my N9 would become unresponsive so far is has never crashed/frozen *Touch wood*

Are you sure not a single time? I'm sure it must have seemed unresponsive when running nitdroid

Man, this kind of view scares me. Jolla is an entirely new start-up company, composed mainly of software engineers, and entirely dependent on external third-parties to produce their hardware. I would expect their very first device to be conservative in terms of hardware; what they need to do first is to prove that their software product is excellent.

If they can get past that hurdle, they'll be more able to produce a wider variety of hardware devices. I'll be looking more towards their second or third generation of devices for them to get more agressive on the hardware specs.

Oh yeah xD but it's never been as bad as with 5530 when the whole phone would just be stuck on home screen not responding to any kind of input.

I think it needs a decent "mind":
-At least 1GB RAM
-At least 1.5GHz
-Preferably dual core
-Preferably A15 but new A9 acceptable
-At least 16GB NAND (fit all them distros)

It needs a decent "body":
-At least 32GB microSD expand
-At least Wifi-Mirroring but microHDMI welcome
-At least Wifi bgn (dual channel preferred)
-At least BT 3, 2MP ffc, 6gyro, agps (glonass preferred)
-Notification light
-Mic and dual loudspeaker on front
-Bezeless design, thin and light

One / Two hardware styles
Firstly a 5.1in slab with kickstand (9mm)
Secondly a 4.5in tilt (13mm)

And lastly it needs a pure "soul":
Operating System based on MeeGo 1.3, fully pure and open, no surprises
