Jolla to launch its Sailfish OS smartphone in India next month.

I would say it would be a failure. They are planning to enter the Indian market at a very wrong time. In fact, too late. Especially with Xiaomi devices to hit the market in a few days at an unbelievably cheap price tag.

Do you have an official source? I still cant see them launching in India. My reason: they would have released it soon if they could have.

You have completely missed that chuck Norris facts has very little to do with reality or lacks the humor to appreciate it. Nothing wrong with that.;) Either way, Wikipedia can't be trusted as 100% correct so...you never now :D

While that is certainly true, a number of studies conclude that Wikipedia is just as accurate if not better than some of the more traditional encyclopedias thus far used as a reference point.

Examples:
* Study: Wikipedia as accurate as Britannica
* Wikipedia vs. Britannica Smackdown
* Wikipedia vs. Encyclopedia Britannica

Oh Dave999! I am not worthy!

But please. If I may ask one more question. In the next 3 years, which is more likely? A jphone II or WW III ?

Oh Dave999. I am so honored that you agree with me! I would like to add that I am very impressed with you Crystal Ball. I only have access to an 8 Ball that I purchased at Toys R Us.

@ranbaxy The results for Xiaomi are quite impressive. However, if I understand Dave999 correctly you are still better off investing in Alibaba than Xiaomi. Btw. how do you pronounce Xiaomi. Does it sound like "show me" or close to that?

How do you pronounce Xiaomi?
Let’s first make sure we know how not to pronounce that name. It’s not Zai-omi, nor is it Zayo-my, it’s also not Exi-omi. The correct way to go about this one is Shao-Me.

:cool::):D:p:o;)

Hope it is true! But can I get one with a HWKB!

EDIT: Doing a little searching. I now think it is a cruel tease from Nokia/MS as Debian Red probably has nothing to do with OS but their prototype naming scheme. Meanies! (Please correct me if I'm wrong!)
