Why would they want to? The North American market is already completely saturated (far more so than Asia, at least); so it'd involve significant startup pain for much less gain. The Android model -- build a popular OS, while letting the hardware manufacturers go through the effort of actually pushing the machines into the market -- seems far more viable for a tiny company like Jolla...
