smar****ches for health data, navigation and training will be huge. Both militery and cevilians will spend in this area. If you want to be part of the future. This is where you should go...
- Continue Sailfish OS's development - there are _a lot_ of things that need improving, such as allowing applications to be set up via settings, access to event screen and so on. Increasing the quality here is key. Plenty of information in tjc.
- Improve/support Sailfish OS's application "ecosystem" by allowing for paid applications, polishing Harbour's rules, allowing for 3rd party repositories (not only free, but also for the occasional partner who wants to have theirs). Lots of business talk and processes here, really boring stuff, but required nonetheless.
Assuming it's true that Jolla is overbooked in terms of devices, I don't think that going to another market that may or may not be saturated is wise at the moment. FWIW, they are already doing what they said they would do with China: make Sailfish run on Android devices so that Chinese can download it and flash their device. Not sure what the business model is here, but at the bare minimum it'll get people talking.
Another device? Yeah, sure, but unlikely that that's the "next" move; if anything, it should be happening already in parallel, planned for a later date (NB: I'm not talking about the same device with a modem compatible with US frequencies).
