That was back when we still had hope
Don't worry, at least i still have hope the story continus somehow
And if there will be no additional tablets ever, maybe prometheus can at least use the list as a startingpoint to form a prosecuting party for his class action suit he will devote a substantial amount of usually precious lifetime on.
Or Bundyo can use it to prove authenticity of the device if he tris to sell it for 10k€ in a decade to come.

I am lurking here as you can see on some likes on y'all comments but as december business is going the opposite direction in my case than it does for Jolla, i don't have the time to post much.

Ah yes, my business advice to Jolla, do Sailfish Sushi.

Money is not the real issue in the world.
It is faith.
Jolla having no money means no relevant money source trusts in theyr business model.
As a long time supporter i can only shake my head over especially "Anttis" mind set and actions contradicting every good trait i learned in 14 years as a freelancer...

My educated hope lies on sharks that are narrowing theyr circles around the ever slowing prey calculating theyr effort to catch it.

I actually talked the case casually with one of my customers (german kyocera ceo) and learned they actually build an own mobile phone i never heard of. It is nearly indistructible (freakin really!) because its made of keramics.
Anyhow, i had about 5 minutes to make a case on Jolla and Sailfish which he had actually heard of (electronis geek type of guy).
You wonder about his answer after i tried to sell him jolla for 10mio per year.
He said like "The actual costs to enter a market of that size and structure is around 1 Bil. (Europe Mrd.) per year just for marketing. You need to ask Marc Shuttleworth, not a small fish like us".

Ahhh, we had some good laughes.

So long, thanks guys for keeping me up to date with your comments, i spend an hour catching up 20 pages or so... Nice Read :P

Wise words!

Easy. We discussed this many times already. Do not enter that market. Enter a different one. That's what I thought Jolla was doing but they must have fallen a victim of their own demagogy. Competing with Apple and Google. Yeah, right.

It is soon 2016 and that means Nokia can by Jolla and then history repeats.

You can get one in rip-off Britain for the same number of currency units as it costs in Germany. Only the currency units are slightly different.

BTW that link has only one review but very useful. A phone with a screen you can actually see outside! Dropping it on the rocks! After a year with Jolla, a phone that does not reboot in my pocket when I gently tap on it sounds like a dream.

This is perhaps the scariest thought of this entire thread to me.

Could the board be possibly less incompetent on a second go-round? Less baggage to manage since selling out to MS?
