Re: 2.1.0/Iijoki EA

For sure I agree on that, there are many one-line fixes that would improve the OS tenfold but for some mysterious reason stay unfixed forever*, and instead we get crap like the Messages and Notes...

Re: Nokia with Sailfish

My usage pattern is not standard. I do not do social networking. I detest "the cloud". SSH and CLI have more value for me than SIP. I can live with most of Sailfish's shortcoming and even see some...

Re: Nokia with Sailfish

And my point was that software-wise they were the same in the Symbian days too, so I really do not get this nostalgia after the "good old days". Different variants of Symbian do not count, you may as...

Re: The Future of Jolla's Tablet

I think you're being quite unrealistic if not a bit naïve. They did deliver a phone, we've seen them bend and twist from a last second hardware change and still hit good dates and deliverables with...

Re: 2.0.1.X Taalojärvi

There's been alarmingly little progress made in the 3 months since the initial EA release. You'd hope that means that 2.0.2 will be a really big one. But given past form I doubt that's likely.

Re: The Future of Jolla's Tablet

I'm not. :-)

After being underwhelmed by the phone there was no way I was being a crash test dummy for the tablet.

Re: Sailfish on Turing Phones?

Kudos for you. I am not part of that trend and glad to have bigger screens so I can actually see stuff and have hands big enough to hold that screen.

But that's all personal preference. If this is...

Re: Sailfish on Turing Phones?

That term has been around since 2010. Here's a link about Apple renewing their usage of the alloy and term (http://www.macrumors.com/2015/06/23/apple-renews-liquidmetal-rights/).

And screen size,...

Re: Sailfish on Turing Phones?

How exactly is size of the screen related to how "smart" is the phone? Or the customer?

Meh, why compare with iOS or Android at age 2 years old, let's compare with Nokia 3310 at day one :)

Re: The Future of Jolla's Tablet

That's the way it was spun externally, yes.

Like many things on together.jolla.com - it's apparently the community that decides. But if that were so, we'd have decent maps, a properly working...

Re: The Future of Jolla's Tablet

Maybe this is the reason. Because a year passed and no one got nothing, same mistakes are made again and again. But yet people glorify them and if anyone point out the problem, no one would care...

Re: The Future of Jolla's Tablet

I still don't see how licensing OS that does not carry any additional service that can make some money, not even a store with paid apps, can be a solution and a way to go for Jolla. And on top of...

Some surely will, no doubt about it.
I know that if presented with a good story I will buy it, no problem.

As I see it, the tablet campaign went through correctly, and I donated to it fair and...
