After watching all the videos of Sailfish at MWC, what does everybody think of it?

I'm personally liking everything new they showed since SLUSH, but I don't think that it is quite as pretty as harmattan. Everything just seems functional atm within apps, but the design is not exciting me. It seems like text on a page atm.

What I think of it it?

It's intresseting but very budget-like. Jolla have only showed us a tiny part. They are pushing ambiance like if its a revelutionary thing. Its not, it might be fun for kids for a while

. the multitasking is the second thing they are showing over and over again. Yes, you can interact with the widgets which is nice. But is their solution faster than fake musltitasking in other os. android can change tracks from look screens as an example. you can only see 9 application in multitasking view which is bad. I whould like to be able to make the widget smaller since i havn't any plans with interact with the widgets.

So what I have seen so far isn't that great. The only thing that is great about jolla is that they are trying and beliveing in what they are doing. I love that!

Interview: Jolla CEO (Video)

Why is their own CEO pronouncing the name like "Y-olla"? I always thought it's supposed to be "Dzh-olla".

You just answered your question...

I'm not sure how

I've heard before from people working at Jolla it's supposed to be "Dzholla".
