The DNA thing isn't really that important for me - look at it this way: As long as they are actively packing and shipping our pre-orders, they can put as many DNA orders into Trucks as they want to - as long as it doesn't affect our shipping speed.
The other way of thinking - "I will not get my order any faster that way but as long as I don't have it, no one else can have it!" seems a bit harsh to me.
Mind you, this is if it *doesn*t slow down our orders

you're right about them beeing still in that timeframe of the 3-4 weeks. But still the *impression* it gives to "ignore" the non-finnish preorders and start selling the Phone in regular (DNA)-stores in Finland is not that good in my opinion. Especially after the whole "I am the First One" campain connected to the preordering.
On the other hand it's still all speculation, we'll see if it holds true on wednesday.
dont be so damn childish it just a phone...

now understan this: its bussines its way more important they get as many devices sold as possible or else you can forget about updates for the phone in the future cause jolla dissapear. Now thats why we may seems not get device as fast as operator shop. I personally happy that thw get device out in shop before chrustmas the more sold the better for all un the end!
None of these are particularly insurmountable issues. But they colour people''s perception. And I'd have thought that a start-up wouldn't really want to alienate their market. Unless of course pre-order people are not really their market ...

if Jolla ships all first wave preorders by tomorrow(dont know if it will happen) they shouldn't sell to non-preorderers at wednesday?

Doesn't change a thing, they wont be well seen... I was expecting to get mine at least at the same time as DNA starts to sell them in Finland...

In words, for instance, being a small developer, I am currently porting my apps for BB10 instead of Jolla... Because I consider that if I don't matters much to them, then I do not see why I should give time to a plateform I can't even try for the moment. What you miss is that many of the pre orders are devs and so on...

Whatever they say people here will rant! They had said 3-4 week what more do you need to know?
Do you want them to send a personal message every hour to be happy!?
Now THAT would lead to a lot longer waiting. So stop cry, the fact that they dont update info every second shows that they work hard to deliver before christmas as expected!!!
