I worked as the middle man in that deal, in the shadows, pulling the strings

That news may surprise Jolla the company, given the following very explicit comment by Jolla engineer Jonni Rainisto
when specifically asked if any additional NFC functionality might be made available.

Odd that no one has managed to do that, then, eh?
I have to confess I have not tried but as I said I suspect it is very much possible.

My understanding/impression was that the phone was basicly just a promo for the Sailfish OS, which they hoped would get some the real manufacturers interested on the platform. There haven't been any takers, so its been a major failure in that sense.
Now for my personal use its been pretty good. Lack of the promised 4G was a turn down for me, until the support was added. Now my only big gripe is the camera, which is super bad and not worth using. Other than that I'm propably too happy with it in the sense that I would not upgrade to a new Jolla phone, unless it had much, much and then some more much more better camera.

Thanks in advance for the answers.

Are u ready to buy anything follow up without thinking twice given the cam is Improved and price is a bit higher? I want to create a poll to see how many jolla users ready to go for an upgrade...
EDIT: maybe OP could add it to this thread?
