no, no, no.......
There's absolutely no common sense in whining about higher price in the future if you can buy the product now when you know that it is cheaper.

I believe it would be worse if F(x)tec didn't announce anything, and then later suddenly increased the price without prior notice, shaihkritzer. They might not know what price they'll have to set yet, and no one can really blame them for that, but at least they warned you that the best price you can expect is now. I mean, what more can we ask?

[QUOTE=catbus;1559341]Where from You get those numbers?

~1200 Euros?

Naw ....can't be... no ~1200 Euros..
My stock-broker insider-trading head-hunting secret source ...
told me....



Ok ...well ...
it was my cat that told me
...Cat-O...

BUT he did have it from a reliable source..
The price isn't going to be no ~1200 Euros
More like...
~25000 Euromouseos

I am not sure what the currency conversion is ...
But he knows his foreign cuisine...er..currency

I'm afraid I'm not going anywhere any time soon, sorry to disappoint

About another subject you brought up:



I'm just like Kabouik, I sure can't wait for the Pro1, and even more so the 16 bedrooms and the 180 eyes internal space

In English (British English at least, I don't know about North American or Australasian), we have a traditional saying: "A watched pot never boils". A lot of posts here have reminded me of this. Maybe it would help to find something else to do, and take your eyes off the ball for a while....

Unfortunately, I won't be getting a Pro1 - my gadget budget has been blown out of the water this year, and there are only so many devices I can keep in use at any one time. It does look like a stunning piece of design and engineering though, and I have been very tempted. When one of my current devices is coming up for retirement, I'll definitely look at what F(x)tec has to offer.

Pacman, You can always sell one or some and get this now at the pre-oder price.

For those hitting F5 in this thread I found a rather unimportant italian blog post about Pro1: https://www.androidworld.it/2019/08/21/fxtec-pro1-pre-ordini-settembre-prezzo-655142/4

We don't talk much about other OS beside sailfish here. Maemo-leste is coming alone well. But it may not be ready by the time people get the pro1. So what else to run beside android.

Well, what about fosh on top of postmark?

This little working UI/UX prototype seems promising.



The question is will the pro1 be able to eventually run mainline? Cuz that would open up a huge world of possibilities

is this really the most advanced thing Purism has to show for their Gnome Mobile OS?

Everything is possible with effort, its just a question of how much. I'd expect it will take some time before non-hybris operating systems are usable for ordinary folk
