32nd Dodecamber.

They've confirmed that they're working on one, but that's about all they've confirmed...
Some have speculated that it'll be based on Intel's new X series SoC, what they based that on was solid, but it wasn't concrete, we need more info.

Their focus remains on J1, Sailfish 2.x, & the Tablet*, I doubt we'll get any detailed & solid info. till Q4, possibly as late as Dec.
I'll probably walk away if it's later than that, there's just way too many other goodies out there nowadays.

But we digress, this is the "Jolla in Oz" thread, not the J2 one, there's already a "J2 speculation" thread.

*plus just continued broadening of all their infra/logistics/partnerships etc

Recently I wrote to Jolla enquiring about purchasing a phone while in Europe for work & then taking it home to Brisbane.

They were friendly & helpful, but also provided a long list of conditions which more or less amounted to 'take a Jolla home to Australia & you'll void your warranty'.

Fair enough I suppose, as they have no presence or representatives in Australia, but it made me pause & think.

The J2 is likely worth waiting for. Maybe I should run Sailfish on a Nexus5 in the mean time?

Thoughts, comments?

It's been coming along nicely lately, read the last few pages (at least):

Still not truly consumer grade (heck even the J1 isn't really), but def. workable.
There's also discussion at XDA-Dev, IRC, Mail-list, & elsewhere...

P.S.
hello fellow Brisbanite (well, it was my hood for most of my life)

Hi all,
Is the Jolla still available for purchase anywhere?

Or some kind soul have one new one to sell?
