But this is not a good beginning. They had sooo much to prove and they put out an alpha device. Inexcusable.
After doing a reset and a fresh set up when I got back onto UK soil on Thursday am I have yet to have a crash or need to restart the device.

It is taking a fair pounding too as try out things. In contrast my 3 week old Android tablet requires constant re-booting and attention.

Regarding the review you posted from neutral observer, I too found the gestures quite difficult at first. Much of this is due to switching on a daily basis between android, Windows 7 and 8, N9 and N900. I still use all these devices and getting used to Sailfish took a good intensive 24hrs of usage.

However the phone of choice is already my Jolla. By contrast it took over a week before i wanted to pick up my N9 over my N900.

Now if only i could port sailfish onto my tablet.......

Multi tasking works even better on the Sailfish and opposed to N9/N900. I did a short vid on youtube video running in a minimised browser window along with people app tiles moving too
