Thanks a lot Chen (and team) for the official confirmation that the bootloader will be open, and that you are keen to approach Sailfish OS developers and others (guessing Maemo Leste for instance, hopefully some Debian-based distribution like the Gemini too). This is greatly appreciated and I hope developers will catch the opportunity.

Will it be able to multi-boot, like the Gemini, or will it be like Xperia devices that are either running Android or Sailfish X once unlocked?

Dual boot should be possible

Are you setting up shop or are you planning to ship it without a shop like 10 selected devs get it?

I'm sorry I am not responsible to any comment other than the F(x) official channel or my direct response. Just to make it clear.

That’s good to know. You mean the newsletter I guess.

So anything in this thread isn’t official?

Do you need that towel?

Since nothing here is official and chen use the news letter to inform about what he like to inform about I see no reason not to speculate or discuss whatever related to Fx right here.

The important thingy is that we all understand this is a free for all interested to see what’s up with this device/ project or whatever. But no one speaks with any real athority in this thread. As long as we are not tooooooo far of the target. Becouse then I call the po lice.

Or close this thread and wait for the real deal.

So
What’s your view...
On this landscape launcher? I’m not sure. So there are no landscape launchers already for Android?

Chen said that he is not responsible for what is being commented here except from his own messages after there was some speculation in the last pages about what HtheB knew, which is not quite the same as saying that this topic is only speculation. The official channel is not on TMO, of course, but there is still valuable and verified information here since we have the project leader monitoring and participating.
