Then they may success if they get LG or HTC or other big company licensing they'r OS. Or else they are doomed.
Jolla only have 80 employees, they don't have to achieve huge volumes to be a viable profitable company. How do you define 'success'?

A partnership with LG could be a fast track to the big league though. If the G2 had Sailfish on it I'd be at Carphone Warehouse tomorrow morning.


As for outbidding Microsoft for NOKIA... Why? What a mess you'd be getting yourself into now. Elop has destroyed the smart devices division and doomed the mobile phone division too. Who'd want to buy that wreckage?

I'd rather see what's left of NOKIA joining forces with BlackBerry, then you'd have a top notch OS, high calibre enterprise services, best of breed mapping/navigation, PureView imaging technology and a potent patent portfolio to boot.
