I generally agree with you, but I don't think Jolla are in some way getting a "free ride" from this board (not that they are likely to change their behaviour too much).

That LTE support is still not as thing is certainly a massive failure, and it's safe to assume that it's a Sailfish failure, as opposed to a hardware issue. For sure I would give Google or MS a much harder time (in that I would have returned the device for a full refund) but I agree with you that Jolla must get LTE working, or admit that they have mis-sold the device... and to the very people who care most about what they are trying to achieve. Can I wait a few more days for 1.0.4.x? Sure. Can I accept LTE being absent for another few months? No, probably not.

Jolla has promised so much. Let's not overlook that Jolla has delivered a good portion of that, but it's undeniably true also that they have failed to deliver some of the key stuff. I'm massively impressed by the good stuff, and it's true that my love of the good bits does lead me to let slide stuff which would leave me frothing at the mouth if a bigger corporation did it. I'm still not willing to accept "sometime in the future, probably" as an acceptable answer for much longer though.

Let's re-evaluate after this update comes out, whenever that is...
