Exactly!

So on the Jolla we have the powe button, just like on the N900. And, surprise surprise, they behave the same.

So what would be the Jolla's equivalent of the N900's slider? Something that is not too easy to unlock by accident? Is there such a thing at all? Hey, wait, how about the double tap on the screen?

The N900 has two ways of unlocking and they operate differently. Jolla also has two ways of unlocking, so why do they operate the same?

Oh, and BTW, Jolla's and N900's unlock through the lock screen are NOT the same. On the N900, unlocking gets you to where you were before. On the Jolla, it gets you to the home screen.
