Jolla and tizen goes asia. I think the community needs to set up shop and distrubution channals. Is it possible to use asia devices in US/Europe?

My friends from China have no issues using the networks here in UK on their phones

Please don't claim something is true unless you have some sort of evidence.
Read the interview!!! Or you think Jolla is lying? Just a charade to scare away everyone but the die hird suckers?

That is great, then we must find some trusted asian community members who can help ship the devices to to rest of us in case of Asia first only. Might be a job for CC.

Relevant part from the interview at IntoMobile (http://www.intomobile.com/2012/07/11...t-available/):

Stefan: Here’s a big question I have. Why did you choose to reveal Jolla right now instead of waiting until you had a phone or an operating system to show?

Jussi: Last week there was a lot of news concerning MeeGo and PR 1.3 for the Nokia N9. People started speculating if this was the end of the story. Is this the end of the line? Will there be anymore hope? If you look at our first tweets, what we basically wanted to say is that MeeGo is not dead. We got such a tremendous response from Twitter and the online community and even traditional media that we didn’t have a choice but to just go with it.

Managing director Jussi Hurmola said it was clear that Jolla's phone needs third-party support, applications and an ecosystem. He pointed out that a version of Angry Birds is already available for MeeGo devices.

Because clearly the world still doesn't have enough Angry Birds consoles. Also from the same interview:

we will also create a software store where consumers can buy applications for their phone
But one has to remember that Jolla's main goal is not to create an open source phone.
The phone will be a smartphone for mass market. It will not be a tech phone intended for Linux hackers. Consumers are not able to hack the kernel or flash new software for the device.
Meh.

Our intention is to make separate version for Open Source community, Linux enthusiasts and people interested about open systems, in which these (these as in the things mentioned above) will be possible.

That article only picket out the parts that it wanted to show

Incidently, the "supported version with closed bits plus unsupported testing/debugging community version" is a model that has been proven to work.

well they will not make any real money with a fully open source phone. To start of their business i think having a mass market phone is not too bad, once they got a decent market share and enough to survive they should be able to please everyone.

Don't forget that N900 was a nokias creation.
