You are correct, and I have done it in a very selfish way. I won't apologise as I'm entitled to my opinion and I may buy a Jolla for me and nobody else ;-)

I do acknowledge your point though, but I'll explain my rationale: I am _not_ interested in running Android applications (Android native, Android "java", Android whatever). I will be happy to very occasionally put up with a slow Android application where there is no alternative to Sailfish (e.g., an airline applicaiton that holds your boarding pass). That's the use I'm planning to give Android applications running on Sailfish.

All this said, you may guess that I'm making a massive assumption: Sailfish will come with all the basic applications that most users use (e.g., you won't need to use Android's Facebook client, or even worse: an IMAP client!).

There are a lot of valid other points in this thread anyway (maximum memory for Android applications, how much RAM other Android phones have, don't buy a Jolla to use Android applicatoins, etc.). Let's see what happens...
