Bought: Jolla Tablet - maemo.org

otsaloma | # 1 | 2016-06-04, 16:26 | Report

I got my tablet pre-order money back, but I'd still like to get the tablet. I understand many are in the same position, but I figured I'd ask anyway. Maybe someone is e.g. dissapointed in the lack of apps compiled for the tablet, something which doesn't bother me.

It seems the Sailfish device landscape is getting more diverse and for development I'd need something more than the original Jolla phone. The tablet would be killing two birds with one stone, as it's a higher pixel density screen as well as a significantly larger screen that my current phone. A better choice than Jolla C, which I missed as well.

I'm willing to pay original price + possible shipping to Helsinki.

I wish I had one to sell to you but unfortunately I don't. Hope you get your hands on one.

I doubt you'll be lucky to get one for the original price. Jolla Tablets on Ebay usually sells for 400-500€.

”usually” sounds like you have seen more than the two high priced auctions we discussed in this forum?
No offense, but i have seen only the two + two more offered here for ”not-so-nice-price”.
Around 10 others that went for 300-350€ +shipping.

Please clarify on how many you have seen.
I am under the impression that price has settled at original perks amount after some peaks during the final delivery weeks?

Didn't you get yours in the end Dave? You should have mentioned.

Also might well be the case that a fairly close-knit and ideologically driven community like this is willing to give a better price to a dev than a random ebayer (especially when many buyers are just flipping or collecting... evidently some of us believe it's still more than a museum piece)

Did you check taobao? Some time ago someone mentioned they still had tablets to sell.

This is what I'm hoping for. Not that I'd expect anyone to let go of a useful and needed device, but maybe someone was disappointed, moved on during the delays, or ordered two tablets just in case, but lost need for the second.

I didn't check, I doubt those are left, but either way sounds laborious and uncertain.
