You need to click "Order Handset Only Here" on the right, then it will show Pay & Go price, £425 + £6 postage.

Ahh, drat. Too big to notice, that's why I did not see it ;) That's my excuse anyway.

(Translation: thanks, Chen!)

I know! I appreciate the relatively straight answers though.

Surprisingly, that's a bit cheaper than buying direct, my order from the end of March was £440.83, and it STILL hasn't shipped...

Wouldn't call a feature that's instantly available via a very simple process "tainting", but I do understand what you meant.

Unfortunately, my bank does not support the Jolla browser. I've reported it to them. Let's see their response.

Not what I meant; however the opposite is equally applicable.

My point though is that a device that could be also used as a consumer device is also going to be used as a developer level device.

Some people want to run some Linux applications and call it a day. Some folks want to just post a picture to Instagram. And all points in-between.

I know! I meant it tongue in cheek, hence the emoji :)

For what it's worth, I find the sailfish browser annoying for filling in
lots of separate small boxes (like pins for banking - my bank requires 6 separate little boxes) because it zooms right in on each one. WebPirate doesn't, and it works really well with my bank's website. Nice to have a choice!

Sounds I've been really lucky then. I deal with two banks and with both I do online banking in Sailfish Browser without any problems. If I couldn't, I would probably just wait that hour it takes until I get to the PC.

Re: Sailfish OS on Fairphone 2
 
Got my FP2 today, verry happy! Everything is working well, apart from:

Bluetooth, which seems to be a common problem with ports. I can pair my pebble but it isn't detected by Rockpool, I'm assuming that's a Bluetooth bug because it's working fine on my Jolla. EDIT: now working fine, see below.

Camera, which crashes on launch.

I flashed FF OSOS 16.04 before flashing sailfish Sailfish if that makes any difference...

Is anyone else out there testing SFOS (2.0.0.12) on Fairphone, particularly Bluetooth?
