And you have to make sure there is also a business model – are those websites selling the OS or what is the plan?

We won’t get money by selling the OS. It has to be something else on top of that. It can be applications, services or advertising. Whatever is their revenue model, we should be able to get a slice of that.

Jolla CEO: You will soon be able turn your Android device into a Sailfish device

I'm confused, it sounds like they've fundamentally changed their model (again), now they're somehow planning to make $ via some abstraction(s) "on top of" the OS.
Can anyone else corroborate this? Or is this just strictly for the Asian market? Wouldn't it be ideal for a "Western" one too? (if done well)

Ancient news, long before MNB blogged about it, but intriguing development nonetheless, still lots of unanswered Qns though.

Talking about blowing life into under-appreciated hardware, I am totally with you.
I will happily pay 100 world trade currency units per Sailfish license that includes driver support for previous and current gen ex-Android devices with open boot loader.

The answer and question was regarding the consumer market. It seems they want to distribute SailfishOS for free and make money via other ways (ACL? Other added functionalities? Ads?) I don't remember Jolla ever mentioning that they would even start offering their OS directly to customers...

OEMs, it's a whole different story.

PS: Should there be a different thread for all Jolla news? Right now they're posted disorderly between different threads in Jolla subforum...

First time I've ever seen them clearly suggest that they're also interested in targeting consumers directly.
I hope it's not all hot air, personally I'd happily pay for a license rather than be subjected to marketing.

Yeah, amongst all the ones still going this is the best (rough) fit, but I agree it's probably best if a "general/water-cooler" thread is estb.

There seems to be a bug on Yandex.Store. Today Yandex.Store stopped working, again. I'm either getting error message: connection error or server unavailable.

After some testing it seems that at first time you can use Yandex.Store over mobile data connection but after some time it stops working over mobile data connection. To recover you have to use it over WLAN and after that it also works over mobile data connection. Until it breaks again?

There is settings about WLAN and mobile data connections on Yandex.Store but at least when it is in that error state those settings don't do anything/help you out of it.
