Some new info on Talouselämä:

New professional CEO has been nominated. Tomi Pienimäki has been an advisor and investor since the beginning. He is also the brother to Jolla's sales director. I understand the need for pro CEO, though, shouldnt he be more from marketing background than logistics? Sounds like the old Nokia to me.

Also an interesting comment on the Ubuntu and China connection. “Based on our information there has been no official selection of this sort and there would be no sense in..., It was only a joint research project, China is happy to co-operate with everyone."

Some new members of the board. Ari Jaaksi (!) and Steve Lau from China Fortune holdings. IMO it is good to have Chinese parties involved. Also Boukerche Mohamed, of whom there is not much information.

Jussi Hurmola seems to be a free agent nowadays - still in the board though. Overpromise, underdeliver?

They confirm that pre-sales campaign will start soon.
