You'll just take the risk to miss someone interesting, with a different point of view.
FYI, I also traveled a lot, and your "ignore list country" doesn' fit with someone used to a multicultural environnment, more with someone afraid of "the other" and that never leaved his beautiful country because evertyhing else isn't as good as what's done in his beloved country....
No offense :)
regards ...

You completly missing My point and the answer to your question. But hey, its irrelevant.
Have you got the money yet or do you donated to Jolla?

No. I did not. Don't support scamers until they come clean.

But I do not judge people who do. Everybody has their own view. And are right.

Did you?

Re: The Future of Jolla's Tablet

I wouldn't buy anything from a scamming person or company but it could be fun if you gave them a second chance.

Indeed. Just waiting for how Jolla handles second part of refund and then decide If they get it or not.

I would also like to see some changes in the leadership of Jolla.

Re: The Future of Jolla's Tablet

anyhow, Jolla C is out of stock ;)

Re: The Future of Jolla's Tablet

I think there's also a couple of other reasons for Jolla going about it in this fashion.

First of all, when the Intex device was launched (for that is what this is) there were Indian community members offering to re-ship them for non-Indian members. By doing this Jolla helps to take the burden off them. It should also be noted that enforcing the warranty with those devices from Intex, India might be very difficult for non-Indians - the Royal Mail in the UK state that the sending of mobile phones to India is prohibited [1] (it would be classed as an import, so you'd have to get special permission). You would also have to justify the postage costs (end-user > Indian community member > Intex and back), and even then I'm not even sure what the law regarding warranties is in India.

Secondly, as the vast majority of people who enter the program will already have a Jolla device, by having a decent-sized pool of experienced (with the OS) beta-testers, Jolla will be better able to iron out major bugs before they roll them out to the larger pool of retail devices in the Indian market.

I'd also hazard a guess that they'll sell as many complete batches of phones as they are able to without having to keep an inventory.

Any more info of how its going for jolla in the unscamed part of the world(india). Assuming there is a pool...Do they sell in 1000s,10000s?

I mean, let's hope this isn't some spare-part devices from unsold aqua fish batches...
