Tablet on it's way :-) Tracking code doesn't work yet though
it does work when I add a 0 in front of it but not sure if that is the tablet package
. I have the TNT +DPD as shipping
When it arrives I will do unboxing video and some hands on with the tablet normally!

Do like me, a crazy project: Get a damn solar charger and connect a 12A NIMH batterypack and place it on the window on sun side of your home and save money in the long run.
Yeah I know this time of the year there is not much sun time/day in northern europe but I also have fat solar panel on my balcony feeding 12 volt battery as another source of power
All that should be enought for me charge both Tablet and phone and sometime also my laptop.
No electric bills for my Jolla's atleast... Sun costs nothing and it's fun learning new stuff. Next year I hopefully can make it better and save more power using better batteries and so on.

The second wave will be exactly as big as the number of tablets they'll be able to wrest out of the factory by early November. Dunno how many that will be.
The third wave apparently requires more components to be ordered, so it has even more constraints against it. It could take even longer than December to complete, if Jolla continues to run up against roadblocks...
It's near christmas and there are big players wanting they'r stuff delivered before little Jolla. That means Jolla must have they'r components ready when there is some time over for factory assembly little Jolla tablets....

I don't think anyone would disagree it would have been nice if they had told this earlier. However, originally they didn't say either way so it was you, me and some others that thought our own without any factual basis it would include a charger even when one was not promised.

Besides, all the statements from Jolla said that the hold up on the "2.0" UI was that they (you) needed to resolve issues and implement new features in the releases in the months prior to 1.1.9 launching, and without that framework it couldn't be pushed.
Your statement isn't credible.
Thing is HW problems may very well delay SW. Because they have to focus on fixing HW before they fix SW!
There has already been a blog post about issue with changed display controller with totally different interface that may very well delay SW development.

Ah, Amazon must be doomed! They never include chargers with their Kindles...
Or maybe they're just doing the right thing to reduce package size and electronic waste.

The package has been at the closest DHL Express facility for the last 3 hours and 15 minutes.
