So which country has the combination of lowest taxes, best data speeds, and best beer? Although, I guess if I drink enough beer data speeds won't matter so much at the time.
I would have said Bulgaria, but our beer is just okay (though cheap - about 50 euro cents a bottle)
Depending on the outcome of the presidential election, I'm giving some serious thought to moving to Europe. Besides having, presumably, a more intelligent leader and the fact that my Jolla phone would get much better data speeds in Europe are there any other advantages in moving to Europe?
Leaders in (Western) Europe might be intelligent but they are answering mainly to their masters in the USA.
So prepare for disappointment after having made your statement of moving out of North America.
That said, no need to await the outcome of the elections to start packing. Unless all USA and satellite EU consucitizens stop purchasing from the usual catalogue and eating from the same old menu, all will remain business as usual.
There are plenty of old Nokia's to be found cheaply, you get to know many languages when you move a few 100 miles, food culture might be interesting if you are willing to explore, you could trace roots of Christian and Muslim and more ancient civilizations , you can learn to understand Russia from point of view of people who not been thought to hate it..
Depending on your choice of host country, you could enjoy the remainders of one of the most advanced social safety net structures ever set up in modern times and even help to maintain it.
For me this last paragraph was the most interesting

Dr. Saarnio comments: “We are soon announcing the program officially, but what I can say
already now is that it will include a special device related treat for our fans. I personally
can’t wait to announce it! Our team is tweaking the offering now – look out for the
announcement in a few weeks.”
And they are even talking about Turing

are now working together to get all the needed software in place. We at Jolla believe that it
is possible to produce niche target group smart devices in Finland, as Turing is now
planning to do. Our aim is to support them in the best way we can.”
Also thanks for the info about countries, taxes and beer! While I may be unhappy with my country's leadership at times, I could never abandon it. On the other hand, I certainly need to travel more!
Just checked. Still no refund.
Anyone know what kind of specs the intex phone will have. Will it have global LTE data? Too early to tell?
