I've never held an N950, though. Do you guys think that it'd work for Jolla?

0.001% chance of it happening.

If Jolla OS is going to be very gesture orientated, it would be silly to bring out a phone with a hwkb.

No it was always before or by the end of Summer, then it changed to 2nd-half of 2012, I reckon it'll be no later than Oct*, incidentally N9 started rolling-out at the end of Sept (2011).
But the speculation by someone that maybe another Sailfish vendor releases sooner is certainly possible...
They could finally announce all the finer details about the licensing model just before that (+ what aspects of Sailfish will remain Jolla only, & what will be completely open etc).

We all here wish for that! And I hope first Jolla phone will have the built and materials of the E-series like E61&E7! ;)

I'm personally not that interested in a physical qwerty, quality of build is quite important though, especially if it's pricey, & I expect a competitive/innovative VKB.
Plus an easy way to connect a BT4 KB (for the rare occasion I need it), even better would be a physical/modular keyb system, similar to what the Surface uses -but better.

*If it doesn't come till Jan or later I'll be very disappointed, & their chances of getting traction will have been greatly reduced

JDTM! == Jolla delayed to market!

It's was announced q1 at first, but who cares. We will have eventually :)

I'm talking about announcement date, not when it will be available.

Re: Jolla Sailfish Is stunning! Now on video!

Yeah I think that was a miscommunication, I had the same impression too until I read a few more interviews...
They will announce with a fair gap before availability, approx. 3mth, but they're no longer necessarily sticking to Q1.
