People need to stop obsessing over a Nokia/Jolla hook up. Jolla are a mobile phone company, Nokia are contractually forbidden from making a phone. Nothing will happen until 2016, if ever, and I don't think it's even a realistic possibility then either.

What if its a crank. Are Nokia allowed to support cranks?

Not at all. It requires Android blobs only if there is no native glibc hardware adaptation. Sailfish is a normal Linux.

Mer supports x86 from the start, and x86_64 was added as well. So Sailfish probably can be built for it rather trivially. Testing and QA is of course another matter.

I don't know, swirl to zoom works pretty well on a 3.5" screen ;)

Nokia=network solution seller-------->maps data seller far, far after that in employees, profit or revenue.

And yeah, people really need to stop with making up the Nokia and Jolla connections here. Why would you even want Jolla to be connected with Nokia?

Nokia isn't forbidden from making an Android tablet. I'm not Nokia obsessed, I didn't even have a Nokia before I switched to Jolla, but if they are allowed to make an Android tablet then why not a SailfishOS tablet?
