Exactly my idea. Nokia went into ultra cheap modus with N9 / Lumia 800. People think that the Lumia has borrowed from the N9 design but it must have been the other way around. Two devices with uncertain future in dummy test cases.
Just good enough and new enough to attract gadget lovers.

The N9 while it had reviewers with sharp eyes for aesthetics raving about certain industrial design features, to me it looked more like a dummy case.
And how this beautiful design example tried hard to slip out of your hands and hit the ground, for example when taking a picture holding it landscape like an average camera.

Not to speak about the pentile matrix display that has been the main reason why I have sold my N9 64GB after about 1 month of trial. In my user case the display quality was too irritating to the eye to allow for long reading.

The Jolla looks not too good either. This tablet is nice on paper but reportedly the screen cannot be dimmed to allow comfortable reading in low light.
Good enough for gadget lovers but hardly usable in my scenario.
So I may add that a refund seems more desirable to me than actually be one of the privileged to hold the tablet.
If this was Nokia they would call it the music and multimedia tablet and then release another version with reading and business features missing for example quality sound.
Exception on the rule was maybe the nice goodbye device that was the Nokia 808 which was the real gem compared to the Nokia N9.

Jolla with one device shots should aim do what Nokia in their arrogance has always refused to do: cover all desirable hardware specs in one single device.
Just an opinion, not saying that they can do it easily with Taiwanese OEM partners.

Having replaced the battery in a Nokia N8 just two weeks ago I can only respect lasting and easy serviceable design, especially when the company decides to quit the market two years after release.

Drop a Nokia N8 on its ends: just replace the plastic ends..
That is good design that gets appreciated most when its gone forever.
