If they never used Jolla there should be no perceived changes?

With Sailfish 2.0 all will be same like with Sailfish 1.0: most will complain it is complicated and swipe around disoriented and unfocused on just getting a task done, trying to navigate to the familiar app store in order to download something they know well.

If they are prepared to invest a couple of days in getting used to it, they will coop and eventually like it.

But then they have to have purchased the device despite the many press opinions written after a couple of hours of Sailfish usage in between testing Android hardware.

I wonder who is pulling the wagon of Sailfish 2.0 development?

Maemo / Harmattan users and early adopters "fans" <--- Jolla -->>>>> Android using masses and potential future hardware manufacturing partners

Personally I don't worry much about the small changes in the interface as long as they don't touch multitasking.

I would like to see more options even if they are hidden in confusing expert menu structures like good old Symbian.
Especially application security options.

Applications: I only need SIP and Firefox native to ditch Alien Dalvik.
