they have no plans right now to establish a forum and are happy with keeping things organic and letting the broader "community" look after things.
Certainly, restructuring TMO to provide dedicated software and hardware sub-forums will better enable anyone who might be checking in
to see what is happening.Posts on Twitter are directing community to this thread to discuss and put forward ideas. Jolla are aware of this.

Personally, I think the "other half" is meaningless and a spasmodic attempt to be different.
I use a N9 and am totally happy with it, of the hardware Jolla I'm disappointed.

N.B. I'm not referring to this (very recent) initiative of yours, I hope things evolve differently...

But I wasn't questioning the basic structure, just the title of the actual sub-forum, it's a bit odd...

But to assume the latter & hence do nothing is probably worse, so it's best that we at least do something, infuriating as it may sometimes be.
The only reason I ask if we're eventually going to condense & formally present the info, is because that's what they've typically asked for previously.
That's typically been their requirement before they will consider absorbing the info. & (possibly) engaging to some degree.

So before this thread goes tl;dr, what do you think about making a wiki page from it - discussion still could take place here while the actually essential information (a sorted list of ideas) was easily accessible!?
Kind regards,
Sarah

ATSC receiver 'other-half' for North America and other countries that have deployed the A/153 mobile/handheld DTV standard. 
Perhaps a good opportunity to take the lead in a fairly new and emerging DTV handheld market.

Keyboard slider, obviously, with an active stylus for glove weather usage. Pressure sensitive tip. If necessary considering the limitations of the existing first half's screen, the corners of the non-sliding part of the other half could be used for calibration coordinates. Would be low accuracy, but still more accurate than a frozen finger.

I'll be activating 2 fresh GDocs for that thread soon, as last time, in the Qns/Ideas doc there'll be a hardware sub-section, which is likely to be broken down further into a "the Other Half" section.
Like last time, I'll make it universally accessible for a time, & then eventually lock-it-down to just a few editors, folks are welcome to dump their more condensed input there if they wish?*
As/if we get feedback from Sailfish(Jolla) people, it can be moved to the Maemo wiki, or even moved regardless, LT as Jolla opens up their sites more, it could be moved to a Jolla or Sailfish wiki.
*like last time, it'll probably have to be further condensed & re-organised by some folk willing to help with that

This phone is so thin. I don't intend to drag along a bag of 2nd halfs.
For all I am concerned, make it a "two thirds" pack(s) with better camera, HW KB, battery geiger counter, independant router / wifi access point / file sharing box / portable web server., vaccuum cleaner
FM tx, IR tx/fx .. I need too but there is no excuse not to include it in the 1st half (or primary 3rd part).
