am sure Jolla can simply link a user to an ext4 driver for windows.

I always wondered why I need to sign both sides of the withdrawal slip at the bank. In case they lose one side, they would still have the other?

What good is it to you to have your precious data on the card when you lose it together with the phone (or tablet)? ;)

Yeah... an extra tool called CMD ;)

The artificial 32GB FAT32 limit is the Windows Explorer limit only, it does not apply in the command line.

Wouldn't it just show up on a Windows system anyway as long as it's inserted into the tablet and the tablet inserted into the computer? At least, I thought that was the entire point of MTP, being filesystem agnostic. (But I'm no expert so I may be completely wrong.)

I didn't remember that fat32 supports more than 32 GB (I even bought several hard drives pre-formatted with FAT32)... anyway I know about the 4 GB filesize limit, and that can be quite annoying at times.

I would suggest anyway to also support UDF formatted 128GB microsd cards; can be formatted under windows with cmd, is cross compatible with other OSes, and doesn't have the 4 GB filesize limit.

Really ? I deeply disagree. Let's compare the prices :
- iPad Mini 3 (2014) : US$399 (16GB), US$499 (64GB), 128GB (US$599). Option for Wifi+3G cost US$130 more;
- iPad Mini 2 (2013) : US$299 (16GB), US$349 (32GB). Option for Wifi+3G cost US$130 more;
- iPad Mini (2012) : US$249 (16GB). Option for Wifi+3G cost US$130 more;
- Jolla Tablet : US$189-219 (32GB, from 19/11/2014 to today), US$249 (64GB);

So Jolla Tablet with 32GB (US$219) costs US$30 less than iPad Mini 16GB, US$130 less than iPad Mini 2 32GB, US$180 less than iPad Mini 3 16GB. Jolla Tablet with 64GB (US$249) costs US$250 less than iPad Mini 3 64GB, i.e., half the price.

Please add a 3g perk.

Maybe it can still be achieved if the 2.5M$ threshold is reached? It may need some clarification from Jolla.

Dave999 + mikelima

no chance. It's definitely 100% the final hardware. There is nothing changed.

Perhaps when the next Jolla tablet 2 comes out :)

Great stats, I applaud your effort, but it was a light hearted joke..
