I know it is a marketing catchphrase ...
but the whole ahoy sailors thing rankles me sideways...
for a problematic device I doubt any actual sailor would use..
and I HIGHLY doubt that there are any actual sailors in the Jolla community of users ..
If there are ...they would be the freak exception and not the norm.
Hell ...I spend more time on the ocean daily during my commute than most Jolla Sailors do...I am sure...
Hell..even forget spending my time on my actual sailboat...
I AM a sailor in compare to the slogan branded device users ...

hm...
I think we all need such superfluous catchphrases to designate our device usage.

Definitely I could think of a few concerning the flaming phoenix of the neo900...
"flaming turkeys" is one that comes to mind.
and there are others ..
but I won't ruin the fun..
chime in anytime people ...with your nick names for devices based solely on a marketing profile.
I think sailor is a metaphor for people exploring new ideas and things and places. Speaking of exploring, I went to Balboa Park in San Diego yesterday. Quite nice. Here is pic of flowers I took in rosegarden
