Guys, Ubuntu, Jolla/Sailfish, aren't available to purchase. They won't be for at least two more quarters. For anyone in sales to steer you away from what they can sell you more for something that's not even sure to come to your market in the same price point is suicide. Yes, they should know aspects of the mobile *future* but not at the expense of what's available now.

If that's leaving only Android and Apple in your markets, then make a better MeeGo solution. For this platform to be this old (remember the 770), and the level of the users, we only have ourselves to blame if mobile retailers don't know the value of this.

Now, BlackBerry has chance and a community to change the convo. Either we can be a part of that rising tide, making it better when Jolla and others come with a strong, purchase-able product. Or, we can sit in the very area that many older mobile platforms never leave: "could have been good, will hold on until it's no longer enough."
