Indeed!

My mouse cursor hovered over the pledge button for a while but I thought better of it. It looks too good to be true.

Besides, why bother with KS when you can have one right now and cheaper.

They are not the same device
Posh is an older model with only 512Mb Ram, older Android version and a lower spec processor
The Jelly one as at least 1gb of Ram (there is a 2gb version available), a much faster processor, 4g and Android 7.0 :o

I never claimed they are. I am aware of all the differences. But, if you want a 4G smartphone with a 2.5" screen, you have a choice of buying it now for £/€/$50-60 or contributing to some crowdfunding campaign and hoping.

deutch1976 never claimed you did, he just gave possible reasons why someone would bother – which was the question you've asked. ;)

You know, that might not be too bad a purchase if you can use as a mobile hotspot. That plus tablet could be a good combo.

So lesser than 2.5" screens is a thing again?

"$323,559 pledged of $30,000 goal" -- Hello, people who say no one wants small (i.e. portable) devices?

Looks like it would be perfect with Sailfish on it given the (lack of) screen space. If the device is released and you can get Sailfish on it, I might get one.

My thoughts exactly, but replace the tablet with something like a GPD Pocket and now we're talking. Dare I say N900 replacement?

modems exist so that we don't have to bother with hotspots. Every mobile device should have one. Period.
This....... or anything like...... maybe with meerun for binking or something since those garmins are damn expensive and they do break every xy crashes :mad:
