Unique UX is nowhere near enough, & they can't even really claim to be "more open" (in some respects at least)...

Well, opinions are opinions and I respect yours, but I still beg to disagree :). I think they've got a chance and will be also compelling in oteher aspects if not in TOH aspect (currently). :)

"And how do they call Other Half?"
"Other Half is Other Half, but they call it Le Other Half."

You're entitled to believe they'll still be successful, I highly doubt they can without some strong/compelling differentiators, they don't have them yet, far from it sadly.
To be clearer, I'm sure I'Il find many aspects that are compelling "to me", but they're not the same things that will result in mainstream success "longer-term".

Just wondering if anyone knows the exact weight of the entire box including the phone so I can figure out how much Fedex/DHL is going to rape me for?

First short & quick review article from Helsingin Sanomat.

http://www.hs.fi/talous/Jollan+ensim...a1385565842743

Positive: Fast browser, good multitasking, light (weight), Other Half, new fresh OS, and they really like the look and industrial design.

Negative: No zoom in camera, horizontal use only in camera mode, touch controls buggy on web browser.


Those negatives are really suprising. Wonder if its a.) idiot journalist or b.) the OS more of a beta than I thought.

The manual clearly states that you can take pictures both in portrait and landscape mode.
