In the spirit of Unlike how about calling it PadJ or Le Pad J

Le Pad J Sounds excellent. Lets make IT a requriment for jolla.

Le Pad For J

Le Pad J? That's downright horrific yet meme-worthy.

Sorry, my bad wording. I meant that I put the smiley there to suggest that my post was not entirely serious and by removing it, you changed the tone. Not that it matters as long as we understand each other.

jPad or variations on the name would be a dead turn-off for me. I vote for Jolla Slate.

le pad, c'est chic?

So when are they shipping the tablets?

SOON

...at least 10 characters.

So we left the conversation in the middle:
What was exactly done to OS to optimize it to tablet?
Why it took a year?
If all $$$ from campaign went to OS development for tablet adaptation, so all those updates during this year were tablet related?
If campaign would fail from start where did Jolla would get the money for OS updates and developments not related to tablet?

In other words if all money from campaign went to OS adaptation for tablet and it took a year, what those changes are, as other updates and changes not related to tablet should be done even if there would be no campaign.
I smell fish in the air

Would the changelog not be the first place you've looked for this information?

2.0 Saimaa changelog... and there's other versions including the latest version 2.0.1.x.

It was a major OS release with many tweaks visible as well as under the hood. Taking a year is not outside the realm of things.

I'll keep it simple. Do I think it was worth 2.5 million dollars? No. But a scalable OS that remedied and perhaps backfilled all of the other issues that 1.0 invariably had... it might prove to be a worthy investment if licensing takes off and manufacturers decide whatever hardware they want to do/use and can do so.

But that matters none to us; we want our tablets we paid for, right? Not the investment into making their OS scalable. The argument that it should have been as such from day one is moot. It's there now. But at the expense of the user backed tablets.

So back to you. What are you asking exactly? Why did it take a year to produce a major update to Sailfish or are you asking why it cost 2.5 million and the tablets?

Or am I misreading what you're inquiring... which is a very possible outcome. And since my words have been taken wrongly in the past; do understand that I'm genuinely curious and wonder what you're inquiring. Thanks in advance.

I'm sorry, but soon is not soon enough!
