Added some clarifications there.
Would it be better that this is downloadable from e.g. openrepos?

hi, since you are not planning to build another wave, is it possible to (let's say sell, i don't know) that idea to Jolla itself, that they could make (probably make some contract with some factory) more ?!

Jolla knows well that idea (AFAIK they even invited dirkvl to Barcelona MWC to exhibit the keyboard at the fair). It seems also the device is in 'testing stage' in Jolla's labs.
Whether they are going to commercialize it or whether we'll see any announcement about keyboard availability from Jolla, it's only up to them.

Is it very bad that I installed the .rpm through filetug? Should I re-install using terminal?
It would certainly be nice if it was in warehouse and one could check there for updates, but as long as I know what I should do, I'll be fine

For a hacker's device, a keyboard is very important. Many want to do their hacking directly on the device, and are used to being able to do so from the N900. With fingerterm only, that really isn't an option.

The main point is still that I don't want to be restricted to having a phone in my pocket, I want to have a full computer! All Android, Windows Mobile or iOS can give me is a phone.

But then again Jolla has often hinted at exciting things like this & not delivered.
They needed something truly interesting for TOH yesterday (ambience isn't the "killer app" they continue to pretend it is).
Alas still nothing on the roadmap that's definite...
They need scale & they need $, that's their main problem, but they continue to delude themselves that they don't.
They're still not srsly talking to much larger co's because they have faith that they can do everything 100% on their own.
