Would it be very cynical of me to think that Jolla is maybe only using the Tablet as a means of raising capital for development sailfish as an OS?

Jolla have managed to raise two million (cant remember the exact figure) via the indigogo campaign. This is money that has been paid to them and is/was sitting in the bank. Im not sure how it works, as far as agreements with indigogo, to actually produce, supply etc something for a campaign?. but they can say they have produced and shipped (a very very small number 250-300? ) of Jolla Tablets. No deceit or lies here. In the same way they can say that they did produce and ship (even if a very very small number) the Jolla Phone Battery as promised. No deceit or lies here

In the mean time they can use the majority of the money to fund the development of sailfish as an OS.

They can then drip feed those that have ordered a Jolla Table as and when monies are available from licensing the OS...

Of course if it does all go pear shaped - all will say its a very brave thing they tried, its a difficult market, They almost made it...etc etc
