Perhaps if Jolla doesn't come out with their keyboard phone some other OEM would do it.
Even though I agree I have to disagree strongly here. Jolla had few times stated/acknowledged the fact they know their hardcore userbase is already made up of tinkerers/programmers/FOSS enthusiasts. Is it openMOKO, N900, webOS, pandora... These guys will explode when no HWK is around. Implement BT before anything else for running Ubuntu/Arch/Debian on it, or else you have no control. This kills the multi-boot possibilities (maybe they would actually like it? once again I acknowledge the argument, but feel these guys are not stupid and will cater to their greatest fans out there, then again N950ish like device with hwk when standard jolla device has only software and charging for that piece extra 250$... every marketing guy will tell you it is a great idea, hope they feel dev enough to not allow it)
