@corkpcp:
Sorry, didn't intend to be rude or mean on you, but I couldn't help finding it a little amusing.

Sailfish is based in Nemo/Mer, so there you go.

That's what Jolla (Marc?) said in an interview - they were being pessimistic.

I agree with this... Drive and offline maps is almost essential. The good thing is that I can still use the N9 without a SIM

Hijacking this question to talk a bit about Jolla and open source.

I don't have metrics for everything, but here's what I do know.

The central focus of Jolla's open source efforts are in the Mer and Nemo environments, because those are where we get the basis for our distribution (Sailfish OS). These are open projects and not just run by any one individual or organisation, but we contribute quite a good slice. A large part of our work is based on and around open source software.

You can follow through the individual projects where much of this work happens:
https://github.com/mer-packages/
https://github.com/nemomobile-packages/
https://github.com/nemomobile/

Onto some metrics:

https://www.ohloh.net/p/nemomobile

(note the dip in 2012 when Nokia ceased their activities, and note how it's been steadily increasing since - again, not everyone in Nemo is working for Jolla - but there's quite a number of us)

Jolla also contributes to other projects, such as my own personal favorite - Qt:

And BTW, those T-shirts have probably cost about 10-20 € tops buying them single. Imagine after ordering a few thousand.

OK, sorry for the rant. Back on topic... No, I haven't cancelled. I'll be passing it on to someone outside the supported countries.
You have misread my post.
I am waiting as well and I do understand the OP and respect his choice.

My post was solely about the 100EUR voucher - my example with getting free t-shirt was not about the OP, it was just an example why it would not make sense to expect the refund (of 100EUR voucher). I know these weren't anyone's intentions, but I wanted to make this clear prior to reading "Jolla is bad, they didn't refund the 100EUR in cash" all over TMO in few weeks.

I don't think that cancellation of your order will destroy your 100EUR voucher - I expect it to be valid till 06/2014 - but it's not cashable.

Hey all... A fellow sailor pointed this thread out to me. I can say there is a big pile of Jollas in a warehouse near you. And more arriving every day. Jolla's Sailors are working day and night to get them bundled up and into the post as soon as possible. We really appreciate your patience.

The delivery time specified at the time of your order is still valid.

Could you please give more details about that?

I know this will sound a bit like a fanboy speech, but bear in mind that today is a public holiday in Finland, big respect for all sailors who are actually interacting today on TMO. I mean, shouldn't you be getting drunk or something? :-)

edit: fixed typo

I'm in Norway, so I'm exempt from the holiday. But I don't like public holidays much anyway normally :-)
