I already see a problem. Use of both hands. You know why? The corners are uncomfortable.

Android have pretty ok multitasking and the will soon open all apps in windows so user can run lots of app at same screen. At same time..great for tablets.

That is probably the biggest difference to jolla. Live Multitasking...
The masses don't care. IPhone still selling extremely well.

It does but the world change. Just look at Nokia. You can't take anything for granted.

Apple spends much time being in tune with masses. That is their forte.

I am reposting this article that is very interesting and tells you the problems at NOKIA of serving tech geeks rather than regular crowd. That is why Symbian ultimately failed:

Will Jolla be able to throw away their imprints and be in tune with consumers ? Or will they design stuff that is good for tech geeks as this guy criticizes subsequent Symbian phones:

"In fact, I get the feeling that it was designed as if its main purpose all along would be to advertise itself to telephone technology enthusiasts. All kinds of amazing functions are promoted on the display, but since I do not understand what the names mean, my guess is that I will never use them."

iPhone's market share is shrinking, it's the lowest it's been since 2010. The iPhone might have been good in the dim and distant past but nobody wants Apple's Taliban phones in 2013.

Random rebooting, the blue screen of death, defective new 'security' features, a UI that makes its users puke - you just can't afford to release beta products like that in todays super competitive smartphone market.

Apple are not a software company, they just can't compete with the big boys. They need to dump iOS and adopt a failed third party OS from the most toxic partner they can find before it's too late.

Lumiaman, it's a simple answer : Because no Windowz; that's why!
And it's reason enough
Now join the bright side of the force and admit y00 l0v3 it like the rest of us!
