I'm talking about its development cost relative to return (and impact on quality of the product).

Can't blame Jolla that NovaThor disappeared after they've spent lots of time on it, can only applaud how quickly they adapted to the situation and continued to be in smartphone business, unlike the big ship they left... anyways, not important right now because



1 MILLION!!!! W0000000000000t!

They went with the Intel chip because they're likely to get enormous assistance from them, either in funding, price cuts, engineering assistance or all 3.

Just curious: would there be anything prepared and unused one could brush the dust off from Intel and Nokias Meego project, on the Intel side?

US$1,005,602 ! 489 out of 1000 from US$209 batch, so 4,489 tablets were payed. 19 days left.

I just checked. $3.2 million was raised for the Ubuntu Edge the first day. Maxed out at around $13 million. Jolla did quite well for itself given name recognition and that they are offering a tablet, not the latest greatest super powerful phone with overblown specs! Congratulations! Let see how high this goes!

there are 19 more days, but I think the rate will be a lot slower, maybe it will max around 6000?
