I currently own Jolla 1, Jolla Tablet and Intex Aquafish (coverted to Jolla C) and tinkering with the idea of DualSim Xperia X (F5122). I definetly wanna try out to flash Sailfsih OS myself and am positiv on succeeding. Just read most of this thread and the instruction on sailfishos.org and have to say:
Apart from tech crazies, nerds, phone enthusiasts - who does Jolla really want to attract to come over from iOS or Android?
I am so baffled....Like always crazy announcements "Sailfsih on Sony hardware - we will make an image and you can flash it. Just need a linux pc"...
I love Arch and i setup my laptop from scratch via shell. So i am not too concerned about all of it. But as a company who wants to become 3rd in mobile OS market? Sorry NO user will go through that....I am suprised if even >=2000 will do that world wide....
EDIT: typos / sorry in advance if that is conceived as a rant - not my intention

In regards to @hemiwi sailfishOS will always remain a niche OS for crazy people like us!

This - sailfish OS - is a tech demo.
It's client / target market (I believe) is government(s), especially ones that don't want "5 eyes" watching them
Having said that I've got my €50 ready

The Sailfish X infodump didn't mention any ongoing plans for the Sony devices, so they may or may not still be working on a nicer installer.

Sorry NO user will go through that
