Have they gotten wet?
Your tablet is at the bottom of the sea. Somewhere near a burning platform.

Well, the captain facked off long ago. I consider myself to be a paying customer of this titanic, and I expect the life boats to be in order.

You can tie yourself to they mast if you like.

So i know people do not like my so called bashing and more like "water and wetness" and "boat" topics. So i listened to you and here is my input:

So it's raining really hard. There's a fundamental Christian living beside a river and it starts to flood. The sheriff's deputies come by and tell him he should leave before the river cuts off the road.

"The Lord will save me," he tells them.

The river is up to the front porch and the some folks come by in a boat and tell him to hop in and they'll take him to safety.

"The Lord will save me," he tells them.

The water rises above the first floor and the man has to climb on his roof. The National Guard comes by in a boat and begs the man to come with them.

"The Lord will save me," he tells them.

The waters keep rising and the man is clinging to his chimney. A helicopter appears and lowers a rope, but he refuses to go, telling them "The Lord will save me."
Finally he is standing on top of the chimney and the river is still rising.

"Lord," he calls out, "Lord, why have you forsaken me?"

The sky splits open and a HUGE voice booms out... "I sent two boats and a helicopter... What more do you want?"

If I was to use my sense of cynicism, it's pretty clear Jolla don't seem to have the funds required to deliver the tablets and maybe there is a lot more going on behind the scenes. The separation of the hardware and software to two different entities seems to be a way to protect the IP of Sailfish in the event of the hardware division folding.

I didn't participate in their campaign even though I was tempted but I think those who have paid taxes and received the 10 business days to delivery confirmation should read their terms. Maybe the terms already protect Jolla in the event of delays; if not simply sending a letter of demand would do much more for a refund than whining at them.

You won the price for the first use of "Titanic" in connection with Jolla,

Surely as a prize you should get a big block of ice <g>

Might be nice in a dram of Talisker (Though I am more of a neat drinker myself.)
