If the design of a future model is not yet complete or certain aspects are not yet determined, they will never state anything about this. I wouldn't also.



I can only hope that for future models I can hazz access to proto models We'll see what they come up with at Slush! Looking forward to it!
That makes the whole difference between "do as many and as fast you can and sell" and "make good quality last long devices".
We all suffer from overpriced devices on market that somehow last less than 2 years. In other words companies just putting hand in our pockets. I do understand that technology changes, but on other hand jolla was released with outdated specs, so now they can't play card as TOH limitation would be bad. I think if TOH is a major card they have (though except ring tones and wallpapers nothing was released) they should think thru before and come up of comparability thing. E.g. They could make other half not exactly half but part of it, so it can be plugged in different size back parts of phone, and it took me 2 mins to come up with it.
The lemmings part of users already use droid and ios, so they need to start thinking of how to keep up with communities like maemo, as for now they bought people with "openess" and "unlike", but as still no source available and nothing unlike here, they need to realize, that people at some point stop buying cheap PR, thud stop buying products. Even hard fanboys can get disappointed at some point. So they need to deliver something where user wind and not only everything where user just spend his money.
