I've absolutely no counter-argument. Bravo. Well done my friend.

I have changed my mind at the (very) last moment: refund instead donation. Have the (half) refund received on my paypal account at 29.04. To answer the next question: Contribution on 19.11.2014 (position in the row between 1000 and 2000)

And exact problem is that Jolla is not open enough to be tinkered 100% and on other hand is not mature to be "out-of-box" phone with no problems :(

Same here but no refund. Don't know if it makes any difference, but I did inform Jolla right after submitting the refund form on the first day that they are still more than welcome to offer me the tablet if people are refusing theirs.

I don't deny my doubts of actually receiving the tablet, but at least this has been pretty entertaining :)

Well, I gave up my refund as donation, and was given a tablet in the end. ( which am actually typing this with now... )
