Now that the goal is achieved, from what the latest news say they keep the money, but don't move forward to official support for cards above 32GB.
Yes! You spoke and we listened!...Regarding the 1st stretch goal (memory card support up to 128GB), we’ve decided to move forward with an open source memory card solution. This enables you to use memory cards up to 128GB on your Jolla Tablet for back-ups and additional storage, but due to Microsoft’s licensing limitations, cards over 32GB will not be directly compatible with Windows computers. We feel that this suits best to our community's wishes and Jolla's values. You say that the up to 128GB memory cards are not supported for Windows computers. Why is that?

They'll keep the half-baked solution that was there in the first place, from the very beginning: No official support for cards >32GB, but some trickery that will wipe existing data from the card, most probably make it slower and reduce its lifespan. That's what we had in the very beginning, that's what I have today on my Jolla phone. It's part of Sailfish OS right now, no need to licence or develop anything for it.
