A Jolla device is actually not needed at this early stage of the effort - it currently amounts to:
  1. pulling SRPMs from koji
  2. extracting tarballs and spec files from them
  3. putting them on Mer OBS
  4. tweaking spec files until the package builds or adding missing dependencies (GOTO 1)

It is still quite a long way of from having something runable (and therefore actually needing a Sailfish OS device or its emulator).
