Why wouldn't you partner with a company that consisted of people that have made some of the more iconic industrial designs around Nokia in the past?

To be precise though, Jolla1 ID was actually a very strong collaboration process between Jolla and that company, not just "deliver us a shiny ID"

If they've been flashed to Dalvik and back again, then no. Then there's another question begging here - in that case, how can I get a Store supported Sailfish image? Ok they can't give a warranty on the hardware, but surely that's not the end of the story? Surely if they can do that, they they can support community ports, like the fairphone 2.

Juha, in our understanding there should be less than 400 tablets sold by our ODM to those guys that are selling them e.g. on Taobao. But that is of course what has been told to us, and we can't know what has happened between our ODM and some 3rd parties ..

In worst case some of those tablets are not really Jolla tablets, but leftovers of Aigo tablets or even something else. And as we have explained, Aigo tablet is quite different beast, most likely Sailfish OS would NOT even boot on that device.

About the Jolla "positive surprise", it was not announced, but there will be one :

15:01:35 <pascalstein> jlassila: What about that "positive surprise" that was mentioned in the new year blog pst
15:01:49 <jlassila> Well good question!
15:02:16 <jlassila> We have something up our sleeve yes, but we just didn't get it into this communication.
15:02:29 <schmittlauch> jlassila: have all invitations to shop already been sent out?
15:02:30 <jlassila> pressure to get this out was too big to wait.

Common marketing language. They "cannot guarantee" anything that does not come directly from them. We have heard the same about third party batteries. All we need is one brave soul to try it and confirm it works or not.

Yeah, that's good. If the tablets required some sort of activation from them after the factory, then they wouldn't have said *might*, it would have been *definitely not*
