The thing though, is that a whole lot of these posts are by just a few folks. In the last six pages, my count stands at:

ZogG: 18
jalyst: 13
Dave999: 6
JulmaHerra: 5
ggabriel: 5

bluefoot: 4
pichlo: 2
r0kk3rz: 2
mikecomputing: 1
MartinK: 1

hemiwi: 1

So, in short, this is mostly just a few people posting the same points over and over and over at each other.

And, honestly, I don't really understand this thread at this point. I'm sure it's somewhat cathartic to air your complaints about Jolla, but this complaint about "lack of communication" is bizarre. Maybe I've been watching the computing industry too long now; I've watched Nokia burn itself to the ground, watched as HP transitioned from a company that created the most highly reliable products in the industry into one which sells the cheapest-built trash on the market, watched as Apple is slowly trying to turn all of its desktop PCs into big, non-upgradeable iPhones. There are certainly far worse things going on in the electronics industry to gripe about.

Ultimately, there's still a month to go before we even reach the point Jolla targeted as when they would potentially start shipping tablets! As they have already successfully launched a cellphone, I would expect they'll get everything into working order and get the hardware out, whether or not they manage to hit their original deadline...
