Actually Jolla the phone has user-replaceable battery, just that Jolla the company doesn't sell them yet...

That's is what I do I'm waiting...and waiting. But I didn't get any answer from jolla regarding when. The device is working but battery sucks so I need a new one. Also for the future you need more than one battery.

When You think about it. Why would jolla suddenly start selling battery separately now all of a sudden when they soon will look at their next device? Does that make sense to suddenly start selling it when device will be replaced soon?

But hey...I'm ready to be supprised any day now, jolla.

Really sorry about the battery. My big issue has been the data which has made the Jolla phone DOA as far as a daily drive in US. I had heard that Tmoble was going to covert its frequency bands used for 2G to 4G but it hasn't happened yet. While I still don't know for sure if I will get the Note 4, at this point, I'd be reluctant to trade in the Jolla phone because I like to see the updates there may be ahead and I've been thinking about getting the OHKB so I might have a mini computer. One of the N900's I bought used for $100 so I might trade that in. If not that then maybe the OGN. The other problem is that I'm a pack rat so it is hard for me to part with anything...

Just a brief follow up on trading in smart phone for Note 4. I went to a Tmobile store and asked what they would give me for my "smart" phone to trade in for Note 4.

Neither the N900 or the Jolla phone come up on Tmobile's data base so they will not give a penny for them. It's a no go if you expect Samsung to give you $200 since you can't trade them in. At least that is how I understood it. For the rest.

model...Tmobile will give + Samsung's contribution= Total
OGN $86 +$114 = $200
GN2 $87 + $113 = $200
GN3 $275 + $0 = $275

You dont ask. You take your NotListedPhone and sneak trade it. Basically you dont bring up the subject until you got the Note 4 in front of you on the desk and they ask you to pay. Thats when you make your move and tell them that you would like to trade your phone. That way its much harder for them to deny you ;)
