As more info and demos appear I'm becoming a little more impressed by the day.
As it's just an O/S at present, I'm wondering how many manufacturers are looking at the possibility of adding it to their catalogues.
But there's a frustrating side to my excitement too...... Summer 2013 (if everything goes smoothly) for the first device to hit the shelves?
Hoping my N900 can keep going 'til then. I've been lucky so far that everything has remained intact and functional and I'm already wet nursing it like it's a sick pup.

Sounds like these guys have really high productivity. Why didn't Nokia hire them?

Nokia couldn't move like this even if you pulled the same team right in to nokia. Nokia have/had too much overhead to mess up agility completely.

Either way, I think the key for Jolla success lies in how well it handles android apps. It doesn't really matter if the ui is top notch, if these android apps Dosent deliver native experience they don't get the needed mass invasion of free android users. That's the key to success!

Jolla says they won't support the N9/50/00 directly. But nothing will prevent the community to port it.
So, who will do it?

Now the system is optimised for 9 applications, you can open as many as you want though this might make interacting with the a bit harder. (Icons get smaller and smaller)

There is a back button in fact. When you click the dots that show in which depth you are (top left corner) you go back one level. Handy when the current view implements swipe in both ways (image gallery view). Or you can swipe the titlebar

Jolla announced:

For all of those asking as to when the Sailfish image used in the N9/950 demos will be available??? That will happen in coming weeks, so hang tight people.
Me being so kind here is a new 10 minute UI demo, hope you enjoy

Yes, but you can't use/see (apps 5-9) them before you close some of those running apps (1-4 which you can see).

Um, Marc said that it is currently optimized for 9 apps running on the "home" screen and that they are working on ways to make interacting with more easier.
