Could be somekind promo-unit for a local network in negoatiations with Jolla.
Other possibility is he's got it through his employer - according to his website, he's just a teenager, but works as a designer for a company developing mobile apps. It's not very likely, but they could be Jolla's contractor.

Well, now they have some spare change in the building. Japanese investors just paid 1,5 billion euros for 50% share of Jolla's neighbour, Supercell.
LOLing hard. 1,5 billion for 2 games.

So supercell almost as valued as Nokia mobile...
Microsoft got great bang for the buck.
Any chance these are behind jolla as well?

IIRC, a similar course of evolution took place for Zynga before it came back down to earth.

I honestly can't believe they could have kept this up by just making games as they do now.

Have anyone seen jolla lately. I'm afraid they have cancelled the whole thing. If they can't won't talk about Sailfish or the product they can Atleast say something.
Tissot, please knock on the door tomorrow on your way to work, just to make sure...
