I know, but I think many here are thinking they are going to get an even better n9 when really, right now, something released by Jolla would be n9 minus nokia swipe ui, minus nokia maps, etc etc etc way on down the line.

Don't get me wrong i am all for what they are trying to do, but I think skepticism is more apropos than joyousness. There is a long way to go. The only way I see them releasing something this year is on an x86 reference platform with a pretty simple UI and maybe not even gsm connectivity.
