Also - there are people(like me), that do not care if it costs 400 or 600 euro, but they want nice materials, good design, adequate screen. I would have gladly paid even 700-800 euro for Jolla made of metal, carbon etc., 720p AMOLED screen, thinner bezel, with quality components, without SIM tray issues, without vibration problem, without battery problem, without speaker problem and the list goes on.
Yes, I understand Jolla is too small to produce and sell nice device at higher price, but I think current price is not adequate for the build quality and materials used.
I think the price is adequate, but I would certainly not pay more than 400EUR for any smartphone. Yes, I paid 400EUR for Jolla, to support it and was not disappointed - would pay again. But since I had also bought an 'almost new' N900 for ~80EUR and I don't expect to see a comparable phone in the next few years (who knows about Neo900), I don't see the point of spending 700-800EUR for a new phone.

In my opinion, Jolla feels exclusive and reliable, design and quality-wise. But then again, I've never experienced any SIM tray, vibration, battery, or speaker issues...
