Now to work out the logistics and see if it is possible :O
I got the same email, located in Germany here. I won't make it to Helsinki that day though.
I'd suggest you to remove it from your post though, don't want you to run into trouble!

Cmon. Openness is key! Do you mean jolla Will Punish Him for showing this? If that was the case i would never support jolla in any way...

As a side note. Is it even a legally valid way to send something outside of organization and demand to keep it a secret. I think the receiver must confirm before sending?

Got invite, not going to the event.

100 euro pre-order on the first day (don't remember time).


EDIT:

Few pics about the square where the event will be held. Its in front of a big shopping centre. Lots of commercial events take place there. Also easy to get there. Next to Kamppi metro-station and about block and half away from Helsinki main railway station.




In late November it will propably look bit like this.

I have personally mixed feelings about this invitation.
100 € Invitation to stay in a queue? In the evening? For three hours? Outside? IN FINLAND? Of course I will be doing it because I WANT THE PHONE , but somehow it feels a bit like "ne kusee mun silmaan"*, as they say, if you pardon my French.

*DISCLAIMER : The exact meaning of the frase might be overstated as the writer is not Finnish.

EDIT : ALSO, and more importantly, no information is given if the phones will be Operator-locked. Remember, the event is hailed by DNA (who is a telco in Finland)

I´m under the impression that the queueing takes place inside the pop-up store (I have imagined it to be a tent?), so no freezing except for those who won´t get the invitation but still hope to fit inside (like myself).

Jolla has said, multiple times I think, that the phone will not be operator locked.

They are setting up a pop up store for the event. Most likely big heated show tent, or at least these sort of events tend to be arranged in such during winter. It's also only for people 18 or older, which basicly means that there will be free booze to drink.

Lock ins are rare in Finland and never used for full priced phones like Jolla. Also DNA already confirmed that Jollas won't be locked (IIRC).

Not overstated, pretty mild saying. The only thing to correct is that it should "ne kusee mun silmään"

That is all good and nice, but I paid for a phone, not a queue
