I guess they don't really have the money to refund nor to pay to tablet manufacturer, but going for refund buys them more time. And me, with Jolla phone sitting idle can't have any more interest in their os than to occasionally update the phone. ...or until an intex or some other phone comes out with good specs featuring amoled or another high quality display.

I could give them little advice to make it a bit more obvious!

Having just found and read stskeeps' slides, I'd say… nope.

Well, who knows, stskeeps himself might be able to using inofficial knowledge (read: magic. this guy is a magician, that's what's up). You and I won't. My best guess is he won't as well, though.

I'd love some more information on this. From the scraps I read on here, I gather there's some sort of signature on each official Jolla device that gets it access to the store. Without it, it's just like a community port. No store, no dalvik, no updates.

Well, what if we transfer our refunds to stskeeps?

We could set up a small team

It's seems to be like Red Hat business model.

You'll have to hunt for the specific online references where they state this (as I no longer have them), but they were certainly in official Jolla posts/blogs/tweets, mostly from Juhani Lassila

Jolla have admitted that their 'design' was effectively limited to colour and material choices (plus some minor hardware changes, such as the USB connector and a change in display once they discovered how poor the base component was)
