Surely if you ar a hacker like that you have been following Nemomogile/Mer development and you know the answers already?

Well to be really sincere, it was a passion and it still is, but sometimes I just need a phone THAT WOULD WORK with no mods, no hacking, and whenever I have a problem with it I just don't want to make another mod, or use an allready made mod, I just want it to work. I hope you understand. I was under the development of Android ROM for LG Optimus One, we were a team that wanted to bring that device to compete to the newer devices (about 2 years ago) and we were working on the ICS porting. But we never got the chance to finish it, WHY? Because we were small, because nobody cared to much about this project, because everyone that owned a Optimus One bought something else JUST because "it's taking too long", and yeah, it was obvious it was taking too long, because this project was sustained by 5 students and some donations to buy us more coffee to work... Another letdown was some libs for the ARMv6, we wrote many petitions and get a lots of votes, but the drivers never came, so our ROM reached a semi-stable version and then died, because everyone of us was sick and tired of this project and this phone and got some closed source os...

Why are you bothered by the fact that some company is creating something new?

And what's that new stuff you are talking about. Except that tha fact that is Open Source it looks awfully identical with Windows Phone. Sorry to break it down to you...

And buying a Samsung phone may not be the best choice according to you or me, but calling people brainless for doing so is in my opinion idiotic.

No you misunderstood, why? Because you are just another Fanboy. I wasn't talking about Samsung itself, or Apple, or Nokia, or Blackberry, or HTC, or Sony (and I could go on with all the phone manufacturers) it was about the mentality of the USERS. They are the dumbfu*ks. I loved the N900, but it had problems, so it was not good, I am not fanatically waiting for a new miracle phone, I just went to another company and got a phone that matched my needs (after some research).

who have passion for open-source software, hacking, geekiness, doing things that the phone is not designed for, etc.

Until today, what are the things that you made your open-source software on your phone do that the phone was not designed for? Answer me this. Ohh yeah, some of you (as I saw in a thread early) are still trying to convert a image to PDF... Function that is developed for the other big brands for a long time.

If you don't like the crowd here we've got a brilliant slang called GTFO.

Well this is a foum, so if you don't know to read you can "GTFO". The question of the thread was "Will you buy the Jolla phone?" and being a user of this forum I sincerely answered the question and telling the reason why not. WAKE THE F**K UP FANBOY!

If you want something that can do that just go and get Sony Vaio UX-280P or the VGN-P688 and trust me that will match your hacker needs!
