Re: Will you buy the Jolla phone?
 
I made a 100 eur pre-order to Estonia. I really hope that all goes well with Jolla, product is delivered in Q4 2013 and that final Jolla product will be less in size having way smaller upper and lower screen bezel area and that it is not as thick as the demo unit was.

Well, Similar to AMD, I'm from Iran, Where no Jolla smartphones would be available even in the 1H of 2014. But unlike Lebanon, People in some Iranian gadget forums know Jolla, But did they pre-order ?
I own the god sent N9, but I want to give it to my father and buy a new phone. Sorry me, but I hate Android and all it's OEMs. Not to mention Apple.
If I want to buy the upcoming EOS then I have to tolerate WP8's unbelievable basic feature scarcity .
I really don't know what to do. Should I wait for the not-surely coming Jolla which have no warranty and many other things, Or I buy the gorgeous Aluminum EOS with it's great camera?
Thanks for help in advance.

Well, I doubt, seriously doubt it'll come to Lebanon UNLESS somewhere in the middle east gives serious attention to Jolla, therefore it'd be distributed all around the ME. Well, I hope this happens, but I have 0.1 % that it could ever happen. :/

What's the problem with the distribution? Back in the day, the Nokia N9 was not avaliable in my country (Spain) and I managed to get my hands on a device, pursached online a Australia-packaged version (different power plug, didn't know it :() from a retail store in United States (another country without N9 support).
The phone traveled from all the world from Sydney - Hawaii - Indianapolis - Paris - Madrid - MY HOUSE.
If you really want the phone, and don't care about the hurry and the inmediate avaliability from the launch, you would manage to get your hands on one, like i did with the N9 :)

I literally don't care if it takes 3 months to arrive, I just want it to come!

Sorry me, but what if there's no online shopping nor Amazon access nor that silk road like Stockholm - Istanbul - Tehran - MY HOUSE for me?
any suggestions gentlemen? How can I get Jolla then?

With this MS acquisition of Nokia is heating, I really doubt that I'll buy the EOS.
these days the whole life sucks.

Ask a friend/relative who is staying in the list of supported countries to buy it for you. Then get them to courier it to you. That's essentially what I'm doing.

Worst case scenario - find someone here on TMO (or some other forum) that you hope is trustworthy enough to buy the Jolla device for you and send it over.

GUYS!!!!!

I posted a thread not too long ago, saying you can use a mail forwarding service. You use their European address, then they send it to you. Simple!

That seems to be an american corporation. Propably very limited use for edi_opteron.

Considering the trade embargo USA has against Iran and the legal trouble americans get into if they do Iran related business.
