Wait what? That's not bleeding tech. Bleeding tech should never mean buggy. Especially if it aims to replace something, otherwise why would you exchange something where bugs already fixed to something where they even not found — isn't it called reinventing the wheel?
Edit:
my point is bleeding edge is to improve old tech. It can be buggy, but as any mature software can still have bugs. But everytime we associate bleeding tech with bugs and it's not right and not as should be. So it's not even an excuse
Edit end
And stop with limited resources and blah blah blah about campaigns. Yes, there are few shady failures, but there are a lot of examples of people doing it properly with less resources.

Some update on the Spreadsheet that might include mild privacy concerns.
Thanks to Prometheus and VlaoMaos effort we now have a reliable and easy to access source for IGG backer number.
Unifying both spreadsheets could associate your enterd username (maybe TMO/TWTR/TJC) with your realname if provided in the IGG Backer.txt.

I ran a loose regular expression assisted injection to link backer.txt and the spreadsheet for users that gave similar names in both sheets.

Everyone affected please check and notice me if you are concerned, i will anonymize or delete your records instantly on your command.

Anyone intersted in completing his record with IGG# nevertheless, may also ping me again (pm or tabletpre at mosushi dot com), i'll gladly update.

My proposal for anonymization would be changing your given username to the backer.txt igg# number only, as this is public on IGG site already.

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

Doesn't make much sense to me as not even all who did complete their orders from the 1st wave of invitations have got their tablets yet. Wouldn't it make sense to "release reservations" only after the first wave has been processed? I mean those who ordered immediately on Sept. 22nd.

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

I think that is due different models (32 vs 64 GB). My guess is that in the first run they only produced 64 GB models.

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

Should the order status change from Paid to something else when the tablet is shipped? I paid the taxes on mine 22/9 and haven't heard anything since.

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

According to attah at TJC status changes from paid to shipped in the store. There has been reports that it might take a day or two for the status to update after the tablet has been shipped.

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

This isn't pretty. We are still waiting for completion of first batch.

Contact jolla helpdesk.

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

What OTG peripherals are supported? Could DVB-T/T2 miniature USB OTG TV tuner work with the tablet :D? http://www.blackgold.tv/portfolio-item/pc-tv/

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

There should certainly be no trouble with the hardware. Whether there exists software support for the device, however, is the question. I'm not sure there is good Linux support for Blackgold devices... They do seem to have a Linux driver, but no clue how well it works.

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

I am so excited for this thing to arrive. I almost bought an n810 to tide me over.

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

Did you receive tracking number in Jolla email or from DHL?
If yes follow it from the dhl.com.
Finnish Customs need some data as well and if you do not provide them tablet will stay there.

Contact Jolla if you did not receive tracking number.

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

No tracking number or anything besides "Congrats on placing an order", and that was a month ago. I guess the shipping has started with those who paid last instead of those who paid first... Just frustrating to see many people getting theirs and mine being stuck somewhere. :(

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

No email from Jolla to finalize my order. I placed my order on 22/November/2014

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

Mine changed from "Paid" to "On Hold". The shop allowed me to put the order on October 1st (without Invitation). And I am still waiting...............

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

And what exactly were you expecting if you used a backdoor? In your case, you just need to wait for your turn to get invited, then your payment will have been made already.

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

So here's a pickle.

I got the thank you for contributing mail on 11/19/14 at 12:58 PM GMT+2. Since then I haven't received an invite as many others around here. Now the fun part I live in Greece which at the moment is under capital controls meaning that sending money abroad is a bit problematic. Recently I paid for a game on steam and also paid for a certification through VUE but other transactions fail. Not sure what would happen when I got the invite, that is if they ever sent it to me.

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

You should probably contact care as your concern is legit and I'm sure they have to think about how to go around this issue for others like you.

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

Probably will once I get the invite

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

[SARCASM]
Probably you should have done already yesterday, regarding to Jolla's response time ...
[/SARCASM]

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

Which respons time ?
It consist of two (2) Word, Which is apparently not part of Jolla's vocabulrary. ...

"Customer service is also often referred to when describing the*culture of the organization" ouch!

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

If it helps any, I'm in the same boat. I paid taxes/finalised my order also over a month ago, and still no shipping confirmation.

(sigh!)

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

Jollas response time absolutely depends on the matter you are contacting them from my humble experiences and what is to read here and on TJC

slow/not existant:
- Warranty issue regarding display
- Service issues depending on rare parts
- Sending out Jolla Phones and accessories (ordered/recieved, no com. inbetween)
- Questions on TJC involving uncalculatable workforce requirements

fast:
- check/confirm your IGG contribution
- "Are you still alive" requests
- Small Bugs reported on TJC that slipped through Q&A and are fast to fix.

So @Zoxir, i would also recommend you to contact care now. Keep your answer short and possibly make it answerable with yes or no.

I did three times this quarter and always got a satisfying answere within 12 hours.

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

*****, you were right, half hour twitter search confirms, all previous pics were from live shows etc, there was no developer programme (or heavily NDA'ed) it seems, jolla is doomed, where do I get a refund?

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

This is sarcasm, right? Can't tell...

I'm American. Good sarcasm is like a new language to us. So is proper portioning...

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

quite obvious knowing szopin just a tiny bit from his history here :rolleyes:

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

In other words you changed the topic and pointing fingers instead of admitting anything.
keep going like that bro :)

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

Not changing the topic. Pointed out that you were right, there seems to have been no developer loan programme aside from dirk. What do you expect me to do more? Cancel my jolla newsletter subscription? Can remove my tattoo from forehead I guess

Btw, it was not f..., it was s.h.!.t, nevermind we have threads like these: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=93648 we need censorship ;/

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

I did not use a Backdoor, since I entered through the Main Door.

I just logged in in the shop and I was given the option to order the tablet. I do not know if I got an invite or not since it is not the first time that the spam filter of my domain rejects emails from Jolla....

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

Is the aluminum frame part rare? I am aware of a fast customer service reply and proposal to replace this for no less than 50 Euro ex. shipping and user repair is not an option.

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

What I meant is this: IF you received no invite, THEN you used a backdoor (read: you accessed a semi private shop and managed to pay taxes in advance). So, you just have to wait, like others who did the same thing.

The good news is that when your turn comes, you don't need to worry about paying.

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

Ehhrrm, yes.
Next Tablet Review coming in by gearopen.com

[wild-theory-mode-based-on-false-assumptions: on]
The picture that Jolla sends out more Review-Units than Dev-Loan Devices hardens...

Honestly, makes little sense to me in light of the "we are a OS company" strategy and the obvious trouble to maintain the existing userbase with service and care.
Is another batch of tablets planned that is not already sold and needs marketing?
Sure looks like, doesn't it?.[wild-theory-mode: off]

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

One of the reviews suggests that the review device is used multiple times, so it isn't that they give it away: they recall it after the reviewer is done (which is bad for the review as a reviewer could mishandle the device).

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

Uhm... first couple of paragraphs read the same as: http://www.trustedreviews.com/jolla-tablet-review

Anybody care to compare further? :)

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

Yeah, actually, at the bottom of the page they note that this review came from "trustedreviews.com", so at least they aren't trying to claim it as their own. :)

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

Lol, sorry for not checking deeper and suggesting wild theories...
My bad, i am at work still and just passed it through barely unread :/

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

This shared loan model is common practice amongst tech reviewers. The last reviewer I saw of this instance was for the new AMD Radion 390 gpu where they found the card was running hot. On closer inspection they noticed some screws had their finish etched away, where a previous reviewer had performed a strip down and not bothered to re-apply any fresh paste.

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

If review devices are the same few and there are almost non devs who got device, what loan devices Jolla was talking about?
That's exactly the point of openness and communication. When i asked them on twitter, they told they are concerned about those devs privacy :)

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

Hi my friends

Short question: is there anybody else who was under the first contributors on indiegogo, received the invitation for the order a few weeks ago, paid the tax but hasn't heard anything since tgeb from jolla regarding delivery since then?
still waiting and being jealous to the "real" early birds who already got the tablet :(

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

Actually, I find that positive.

-reviewers should be genuinely interested and feel motivated to fulfill their assignment instead of dropping a few lines in trade for new free toys.

-2nd hand device review does not mean it can't be a completer review..the review put forward by mosen above http://gearopen.com/tablets/jolla-tablet-review-18104/ is better than the one from Engadget and covers briefly the loudspeaker performance... Many "reviewers" don't even bother to allocate extra precious bytes to that.

-I am not interested in lengthy descriptions of unboxing ceremonies.

-even with review copies handed out for free you rarely find reviewers revisiting their first review with an update after 3 months of usage / after software upgrade... A free device is a high price to pay for a one shot, rushed out review that seems to be the a sign of diminishing interest in tablets and an overload of models.

-If drop / pet / toddler tests were to be performed on the device as part of the final benchmark things would be different but..

Re: Jolla tablet countup to delivery[Now With Poll]
 

Is it better? How would you compare it to trustedreviews.com review? :P (I suggest reading the comments after the link was posted, where it's just copy paste from older review from trustedreviews.com)
