Re: The Future of Jolla's Tablet

Does anybody know what Jolla is going to do with the combo perks? (the Jolla phone and tablet). My interpretation would be a refund, just like the other perks (half of total amount in Q1 this year,...

Re: Nokia low-end Android phone is reportedly unveiling at MWC (pic inside)

LOL I just found out that CPU used by the Nokia X series isn't similar to the Lumia 520 at all.

Nokia X uses MSM8225 (dual core Cortex A5 and Adreno 203 made on 45nm), Lumia 520 uses MSM8227 (dual...

Re: Skype API shutdown - what happens to Skype on the N9?

Re: N950 Broken Sim Slot teeth

It most likely is a very bad situation. Most phones have the SIM-card reader soldered on the main board, the n950 most likely does too. So it isn't a part that can be easily swapped.

Re: [Request] DVB-T tuner for N900

Depends on what "this" is.

Both phone platforms are based on Linux and QML/Qt, but other than that there are very different propositions, so I don't know if Edge backers are also interested in the Jolla device.

Re: Ubuntu Edge

Comparing the "openness" of Nokia and Canonical based on the developed UI isn't really fair. Both did/do very different development work to bring you Linux powered phones.
