Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 
too bad. that could been an indication that tablet is close to release if people getting cases...but no case so far...think jolla pushing the shippment breaks.

no stskeeps in this thread the last few days either. could be an indication that they have a tricky issue with the tablet.

or he is simply on a well deserved vaccation. who knows... :D

we have now more than 150 tablets buyers in this thread. AWESOMe...and possably a few 100ed readers more. So some jolla precence would be nice...how to trick cybette to join the waiting thread? maybe one post every week so we know thst they are working and not eating mema. or is it memma? mämmi? Maemo.... yes, thats it.

Didn't Jolla say that the cases will be shipped with the Tablet?

You probably mean "LastuCover" -- thats different from Indiegogo "LastuCase"?

Case:

Personally contributed to Mapbagrag sleeve and LastuCase, but no sign of either shipping.

I don't have problem, but I promised my GF to give her my current LG G Pad 8.3 and now she's the one eagerly expecting arrival of my Jolla tablet :D

I missed the Indiegogo version by like a few minutes - they're basically the same but all walnut + Jolla logo whereas this version has three types of wood.

This is shipping at the end of July; same as the Indiegogo version I think. We're not getting anything sooner. And no update as of yet + 2 weeks shipping.

New Tablet Blog Available, Display Issues Fixed
 
Hey, dunno if I'm first on this but a new blog entry is out:

https://blog.jolla.com/jolla-tablet-...ipping-update/

Long story short: display now fixed, developer loan program starting (with tablets arriving in their hands in early August), general shipping to contributors to occur 3-5 weeks after developer loan program completes. Which, I'm guessing, means roughly end of September or so...

HtheB 2015-07-23 10:40

Re: New Tablet Blog Available, Display Issues Fixed
 
So by the time this gets released, it will be pretty old hardware again :(

mikecomputing 2015-07-23 10:41

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 
https://blog.jolla.com/jolla-tablet-...ipping-update/

"Developer Device loan program has been launched with invitations sent to selected developers. We anticipate that these developers will get their hands on Jolla Tablet developer devices from the pre-production batch very soon, as we will be shipping them in early August."


It seems earliest mid/end of september for non developers.

Depends on your definition of "old hardware". :) If you consider a device old whenever a new CPU comes out, then yeah, pretty much every device ever released by every manufacturer is always obsolete the very day it is released. :)

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 
Posted on the blog my opinion:

Will the Lastucase come then individually?
Will the Jollaphone get Sailfish OS 2.0 prior to the tablet release?
What were the old screen specs and what are the new ones?
The 2nd perk “split screen feature” was told to be implemented Q3 when the tablets will be sent to backers. Does that mean this timeline is affected to?

Delaying the delivery for a second time is in my opinion not as bad as the consistenty of this “trickle down” information desaster.

Drekkie 2015-07-23 12:46

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 
Lol at everyone in the comments who happily bought this expecting May/June arrival but now are saying the hardware will be "old" after a 3 month delay. Please tell us what things you won't be able to do with it arriving in September that you could have done with it in June.

Why don't you just say you're mad you didn't get the toy you were promised exactly when you wanted it.

Well, I was going to take over the world, and it could have worked if I had started end of May. I was also going to fix poverty, hunger and give everybody equal opportunities. It was a pretty sound plan too - but it needed a Jolla tablet delivered on time.
Now that chance is gone; thanks, Jolla.

PS: I can't even play GTA V now, as that was my plan B.

If the hardware quality is fine that is not an issue.

Looking around at the phone market it appears that by end of Sept 2015 Sailfish 2.0 will have a good chance to be the latest and greatest consumer smartphone OS on the planet.

One of the reasons for that would be that it will have to run fine on pretty old hardware like the Jolla phone and Tablet.

When you put it that way, it does sound like a reasonable gripe.

What makes me mad is not that i get me toy on time (resp. after 2nd delay). What makes me angry is the #unlike #openness and other PR speech whereas the communication was just disastrous in the last 2-3 months.
#soon #shortly are terms i dont want to hear anymore. On the last blog entry (10days to 2 weeks ago) Jolla wrote that the shipping in July MAY be affected. Really? If sending out the tablets is 3-5 weeks after the developer loan programm starts Jolla 1000% had to know 2 weeks ago but didnt want to tell then.

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 
Whohoho...I did say people will get this in September. And people in this thread...

"No, indiegogo say end of May", "stupid stop speculating you are incorrect", "It's end of July, not sept. read the blog" and so forth.

I'm too good for this thread! ;) I should be president. Not Donald Trump...

1. Bought another tablet today. Can't wait any more for jolla. Surface Pro 3...vacation is imminent.
2. As long as (Hope) I get my tablet before Gerbick, since you still have patience in every post you write ;) or do you still? :D
3. I think jolla should cover tax for its backers. Would be the right thing to do.

You wish for tablet for Christmas? You will get it right in time...IT will ship as soon as the snow arrives...HoHoHo

I assume the only company that can get away with releasing outdated hardware is Apple. :D
It pays off to name things differently and keep silent about the actual specs.

Well, actually, yeah! That's kind of the point of Apple: they put an awful lot of time and effort into their software, and an awful lot of time and effort into their hardware design, and even an awful lot of time and effort into the look of their products. And so, their products take an awful lot of time before they are released.

Say what you will about the company, their products tend to be beautiful, easy-to-use, and last forever. Whereas companies that live on the bleeding edge tend to rush out devices full of bugs that fall apart quickly...

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 
Hey, this is a solid piece of communication from a group that I used to slam for being "vague".

Kudos to them. This kind of communication will work for some (read: I don't mind) but to others, it's not as effective as it seems. And about "old hardware" - this is based on a decision from perhaps last year.

Technology moves forward; always.

For what it's worth, there are some new comments in the Jolla blog about the general shipping date, e.g.:

Quote:

Carol Chen on July 24, 2015 at 4:51 am
Hi ninepine, the earlier estimates had a shorter lead time from the Developer program. Current estimates will put general shipments to start in end-August to mid-September. The logistics solution have been implemented, although the devices have not been shipped from the factory yet.
