After Jolla I went back to N9. I have tried Nexus 4, BB Z10, Lumia 820, now I got myself BB Q10 and it's quite good. I'm gonna stick with it till a good Sailfish replacement is available.

Same here. I would like to see it as 80 Euro Sailfish OS + 170 Euro Jolla hardware.
Good software does not need to be given for free (even if it were open source)
Nevertheless, looking forward on the Ubuntu Phone and the Jolla Tablet.

I see a big chunk of the 250€ pricetag to be a support in Software development!

but that does little to change the value proposition of the jolla phone selling at that price at the end of 2015.

It could be the manufacturer or the user. We have a saying, "look after your things and they will look after you." Of course, working in a tough environment does not help. My ex-gf was a potter; you can imagine how her phones looked after a few calls with her hands covered in clay.FWIW, my own Jolla from Dec 2013 still looks like new, bar one dent. I am the second owner. The first owner was a First One.

Her 08/14 jolla is also in mint condition.

Of course TOH and Ambiance features were the main selling points The only difference is that less tech-focused people will likely not complain about shortcomings of SailfishOS that are usually discussed on this forum (CalDAV, SIP, FLOSS).

If you are not pre-influenced by A:"SpecMania", B:"Earlier Usage Paradigms" and C:"iOS & Android Fanboyism" that is.
She was a total smartphone noob and just used mobiles for banking TANs and calling. Now she is using more online services than ever and even tweets.
I just set her up all email and social media and she never complained about a thing but is bragging among her girls with a unique phone experience with nice lastu candy
Ok, i can see that being turned into "my wife is not very demanding when it comes to functionality, so a jolla is sufficiant", but maybe those functions are simply not "that" necessary to common people.
