Is there any way I can get my money back from Jolla for the tablet? It's not that I don't want to support Jolla anymore, but I don't really have a need for a tablet currently (which I did have when I backed the funding) and I need the money for more important things right now

Lol, what? In other words "We screw you, but you'll get free candy. Wanna talk about it?"

Btw, I wonder would it be surprise like with special edition Jolla Phone for first wave, that became special TOH, that was just special colour and ringtone, which was sold at shop after all Or would be this surprise like promised opensourcing few years back?
I think if they fail on their promises so much, they need to do more than a "surprise" and moreover asking for people to be positive and speculate.
Obviously none of those mean much to those who contributed. Open sourcing won't bring any device to anyone. Jolla Phone manufacturing has already ceased, so it's unlikely there is going to be "special edition" based on that HW. More likely it has something to do with the coming Intex phone and maybe some "special edition" of that device. Other possibility is some other manufacturer creating another kind of device. However, I doubt it as it has been quiet on that front, if that manufacturer doesn't want to do it "the Apple way" and have devices ready to ship on announcement. Positive side is that the story continues, at least some time, but I don't personally believe there is going to be another Jolla branded device manufactured by Jolla Ltd.

Yes, I think this was said quite clearly between the lines by Antti Saarnio when he told Jolla is back in business. Jolla's investors are interested in Sailfish OS and not on the device business side.

JulmaHerra, please read for comprehension, keeping in mind that ZogG is not as fluent in English as you are. I think what he is getting at is the Jolla's proven track record of "special" offers "just for you" that turned out to be a cursed gift: the "special" First One preorder where the First Ones ended up worse off when they still had not received their phones while random strangers could already buy theirs in a shop... or the "special, just for you" discount coupons from just over a year ago with the net effect that the price was dropped for everybody immediately after some naive fools (including yours truly) used their coupons...

Some people may have a short or selective memory but for the rest of us, expecting that the Tabletgate "special surprise" is going to be in a similar vein is the most natural thing to do.

My reference was that they already promised special Jolla edition for first backers of the phone few years back and it ended up having special ringtone and nothing more. I'm pretty sure they have nothing to offer, so they just use "soon", "speculate" and "something" like always

i meant special Jolla phone as they promised special edition for first backers and they they said it would be special TOH whcih ended up being special colour and ringtone. After few months TOH with this "special" colour was sold at their shops.
It's always for gave as much promises, get as much money for them
