Naaaah, we all "deserve" equal imho.

Especially my usecase has grown out of tablets in the last year. I wrecked 2 Androids because i was too careless with the devices.

I never missed not having any of them anymore.
If i still recieve jtabs, one would go to my daughter because of some nifty elearning posibillities she is now blocking our laptops for.
The other one would end up as a giant portable navigation solution.

My real complaint to Jolla was when they decided to go for dying high risk market (tablet) and not something with more potential like a watch.

Yeah, but now apple again is the one selling 10000€ red gold watches (including ~800€ gold) with even more expensive wristband options of which jolla would have needed to sell only 1000 pieces per year to keep operating and grow from a rich niche.
But nooo, a tablet to show scaleablility... aaand

Scaleing Down to a Watch would have shown that much better and be more impressive i guess. And my feeling is we have yet to see the watch boom. I give the industry 2 years to present an octacor soc that fits a watch...
So to me Unlike is the bigger euphemism for jollas business decisions than opensource for its software development.

I will have a pebble for christmas and cross my fingers for jollas survival and fleshed out community pebble support

BTW, Dave your avatar was inspiration for a Buzzword-Tile in a fun little side project of mine, thanks :P
