As per This post on jolla.together. The next update is early June.

Good news is that this brings 4G to all users.

I do actually prefer a big well tested and full of new features updates.

They need to fix WiFi support for for all WPA types. Can't connect at home or at work currently :(

@Leinad
I think a "paper under battery" solves it in predominant majority of cases. And the fix included is "less sensitivity to sudden power consumption peaks" which is a SW work-around for the paper trick :) But anyway - great!

Interesting. Seems as if copy and paste works in some places but not universally. For instance copy and paste works in Notes and I can copy and paste a url in browser. However I am unable to copy and paste text from email in the default Email app or text from an article in the default Browser app. Is that the case for everyone? Perhaps I need to change a setting somewhere? Anyways, I have found that on the android side of the Jolla phone you can cut and paste in the yahoo mail and on an android browser I sideloaded (Boat Browser). Also there is a nice android alternative to Notes you might consider called Notebooks that sets up a bookshelf of your notes. Looks nice. The down side is that I can't cut and paste something on the android side to the default Jolla apps. Would be nice if there was a clipboard that lets you copy something from Jolla app to android and vice versa.

@Dave999 Don't want to start something but there are a growing number of conspiracy theorists that believe cut and paste was omitted from Jolla phone because they know it is the most often used tool by you as you troll these threads. However, I want to go on the record and say that I don't believe a word of it...

Yes it is. Cut and paste is not implemented system wide. Jolla are introducing it on an app by app basis.

Me neither. Jolla don't have a clue how to do it thread safe.

That is not really true. It IS implemented system wide, not on any app by app basis. You can copy text from every selectable text field in the system (the problem is that fields in the browser are currently not selectable, but that is the problem of the browser, not the copy/paste system). If you develop an app, it is already there, you don't need to implement anything.
In the e-mail, the text is not editable, therefore not selectable (not having non-editable selectable text boxes looks like current limitation of QtQuick, so they might have to implement it in Silica).

I don't see Android as a part of the system, but sure, it would be nice to implement some type of sharing functionality between those two clipboards (optional though - I don't want Android apps to be able to access my clipboard, I'm glad they are separated).

I already tried debunking the copy/paste myth in the experience thread. It's not complicated. You can't currently select text in non-input fields and some browser fields. How they solve that will be interesting given the heavy use of gestures and long presses already.
