Hope these guys pull it off. Strange that Nokia have pledged to support them in such a big way, (giving them a bagful of MeeGo patents + financial backing). Could they be hoping Jolla to be a life-line if everything goes mammaries skyward?
If they can get a device or two on the shelves this year, then that'll be my preferred upgrade path.

Slightly off topic- Couldn't Jolla Mobile be the new host for Maemo.org?- Just a wild suggestion.
