Originally they promised the Limited Other Halves to be send separately at later time, so I was actually surprised that they started to deliver the Limited Other Halves with the phones.
I mean, it wouldn't matter at all normally, but they did make big hay about "The First Ones". That kind of looses it luster later.

Communication is not copying and pasting from the FAQ ...
Business is business and they have plenty of room to improve on that ...

Has anybody transitioned from Paid to something else recently? Or has anybody received their Jolla and wasn't expecting it? That's the kind of things to post in this thread.
FWIW, I want Jolla to deliver my phone through my chimney using Santa as a courier, on the 24th at midnight. And that's exactly at midnight. They can help themselves to milk and biscuits.
EDIT: added please

There is the venting thread if people want to relieve their feelings.

I ordered just in time to get Jolla by December 24th (the end of the 4th week). At least for me, it is huge difference between getting it on December 24rd or sooner and December 25th or later.
The only reason why I have ordered it now (despite some financial difficulties) was to get it for Christmas - otherwise I would do it sometimes in the Spring.
The 'end of December' deadline was announced _after_ I ordered. Knowing the Christmas delivery rush, it makes sense to expect Jolla sent by, say, Thursday, so no, we are not halfway through.
I know it was a risky bet, but I don't think there's anything wrong about expecting the conditions of the order to be fulfilled. So, please, stop with this 'you guys are just whining' attitude (nothing personal against you ggabriel, I mean this in general).
I respect Jolla for what they are doing and I believe in them. What is beyond my mind is why there are so many people trying to silence those who just expect to get the product they ordered in the originally announced timeline...
Exclaimer: I see no point in posting in a sarcastic 'venting' thread. I am just reacting to the post above.

Who are you to call people whining?
Anyway, got tired of this (like others I believe). So I'll hang up on the thread+spreadsheet.

Business is business and they have plenty of room to improve on that ...
Which is fine I guess, just not what I expected.
As for the 3-4 weeks, for most people 4 weeks comes up during the Christmas break, and two business days after it the latest for probably a very small minority that paid the last possible day. So I can understand some anxiety when Christmas is only 4 business days away and status stands at Paid. We are well past the middle of 3-4 weeks for most people.
By the way, I don't think they've run out of Jollas. I think their issue is shipping throughput. I remain hopeful that they can ship all before Christmas.
