Thanks. English is my first, second and only language here at TMO. Why Reveal my nationality? That would be dangerous and unnecessary.

TMO is a great place to learn the language. Right?

I didn't ask your nationality; at times I have to remind myself that a lot of posters here, despite their proficiency are not native English speakers. So certain sayings that Americans or British folks may use just do not translate well. Effective communication happens when you know with whom you're addressing.

TMO as a place to learn English? I'd say there's better places. But it's not the worst place.

I think strange words are super. Keep em coming. Also I think TMO is a great place to learn English because most users are very tolerant when it comes to words and Grammer. In fact, I think it would be healthy for the community if the same tolerance was facing other mobile OS as well. Not saying they should be supported but rather accepted.

Who, whom... Wrooooooooom...

Jolla won "Millennium Distinction"-award. Note that this is not the big Millenium Prize, but "granted to recipients who have showed prowess in the same fields as last year’s Technology Prize winners". This is the first time I've even heard about this smalle prize.

Linus Torvalds won the real prize last year, and Jolla has apparently shown prowess in the same area.

But, you already answered this question (not revealing your nationality though), and you did other things that even place you somewhere. Also, you admitted to having Android phones... do you really care about privacy? :-)

Just kidding, of course, although some of the stuff above may or may not be true. Agree with your language == OS tolerance comment though.

It place me somewhere. The question is where?

Information and incorrect information. But network operators also collect info. I have no doubt most of us can easily be tracked down. With or without jolla, with or without Android.

A simple Sim card save send more than enough info.

I highly recommend reading/watching Death Note to increase paranoia :-)

Manga/Anime - one of the topics is about zeoring in somebody. There has been some mathematical analysis done using Death Note as an example and everything.

Anyway, back to Jolla - has anybody noticed that in the end the screen is "only" 5 points multitouch?

Yep that was pointed out some time ago, went back to 5 not long after the more detailed specs were released.
