Yes. You will be happy with the phone, especially the Jolla People app. It moves constantly like Windows live tiles when in multitasking mode. The browser also displays tabs in a similar way to IE on Windows phone though the Jolla browser has a much better UI

I don't like the user experience so far! I think it will be better when I get my jPhone.

Why no support from big blogs like end gadget?

There definitely needs to be a Saiflish bugtracker if you want this to work efficiently.

Tabs reloading? That's the most annoying thing I have ever experienced on a gadget.

Not sure if this was answered above, but it must be because of Mer's policy of avoiding GPLv3 packages for some core components. Bash 3.2 must be GPLv2, while he newest Bash is GPLv3. This policy is used to make it attractive for the vendors who are scared of GPLv3 anti Tivoisation clauses. However the assumption that all vendors are scared isn't correct, so Jolla for example shouldn't be scared in their own release of Sailfish, PlasmaActive isn't scared either, and so on.

This should be a feature in Mer, to allow using GPLv3 set of newer packages. Feel free to file a feature request to Mer.

This seems to be a big time beta device not ready for prime time.

Yes the OS is at beta stage as said by Jolla themselves. Doesn't mean IT isn't ready to prime time.

If Jolla can accomplish the one update every month, IT will be the fastest In terms of updates.

that's exactly, why it's available as beta at the moment, only to passionate people who preordered before...
