We do not have a solid timeline for when the order/s will dispatch, but it might be as soon as next week.
Once again our apologies for the delay.
Sincerely,

"The project affected the most with the financial challenges was the Jolla Tablet. As previously communicated, Jolla will only be able to fulfill a small number of tablet shipments to its crowdfunding backers, and has decided to refund all the remaining Jolla Tablet contributions done via Indiegogo. The refunds will be split into two rounds due to financial constraints: round one will see half of the refund paid out now, and round two will see the rest paid out within a year of round one - depending on Jolla’s financial status."
Also the original blog post:
" Due to the financial constraints this will happen in two parts: half of the refund will be done during Q1/2016, and the other half within a year, our financial situation permitting."

Yes, the info was communicated via blog Jan 28 2016 so we could give Jolla 28 extra days. However, I WOULD see it as a bad sign if no money appears before December.
Everyone needs to calm down on this topic, especially Dave (you will earn some days off, you know what I mean)! And Dave, you can sue as much as you like, a crowdfunding stays a crowdfunding and an attached device remains a promise, so does a refund.
If Jolla had gone bankrupt the other day you'd have seen nothing. Now you see some people getting tablets and some getting refunds and some still waiting, where is the problem with that? You spent money for a useless gadget (yes, tablets are useless gadgets!) and now you are all on the rails cause of a couple of hundred bucks?! You spent more time discussing, blaming, shitstorming about it than the tablet is even worth, even if you find a job that pays less than 1€/h!
Looking back and to this point, would you consider the Jolla tablet to be a good relationship test?
well, you decide....
I saw the Nokia N900 first, but she got one on contact before me.
She saw the Jolla phone first, but I actually brought one
She order the Tablet first, but I have one, I was lucky enough to buy through the Chinese Market

You are absolutely right. That's why we have traveled around in Africa the last couple of weeks. Still not seen a single Jolla phone. What happend with Jolla Africa ?
