That’s interesting because on many levels Sailfish continues from where MeeGo left off and adds many new innovative features like being able to customise the look of the interface (ambience), live interactive tiles in the multitasking panels, the pulley menu system which adds additional functionality and the android compatibility layer which means you won’t be so choked for apps like MeeGo was inevitably. All these improvements are combined with some nice familiar ‘MeeGo’ concepts like aggregated notifications centre, live multitasking panes, slick interface all packaged in a UI that is easy on the systems resources but like MeeGo, very powerful at the same time.

What about Sailfish do you feel makes it a ‘cheap copy’ and not a natural evolution in keeping but improving upon MeeGo tradition?

Well, I just bought a n9 but I had to resell it because of the lack of support and sync. Exchange doesn’t work anymore and I mainly use the phone for work, so I sadly gave n9 away. It’s a fantastic phone. If jolla will come on the same way, and even better, as the n9, it’s going to be my next choice. But I didn’t pre – order it for a couple o reasons. Mainly, before giving some money in advance, I need to see how definitely looks like, which are the definitive features etc. Now it’s up to the jolla team. O support them but, no complete specs, no money in advance from

I have been using N9 for the past year. I really wished Nokia would use the Meego OS for mainstream phones but its very unfortunate they abandoned it. Luckily Jolla has picked up where Nokia left it and oh my…how good the Sailfish OS looks…I just love it. I really want Jolla to bring this handset to US and I am sure if they can market this properly…Jolla will get a very Loyal customer base. I am waiting for that day to come when I can use Jolla phones here in the States….sail on :)

I too use SE Xperia Pro, but it is getting sluggish. Sure like to see a good replacement for it.

yep, I’d hate to see an app store (or whatever they call it) full of useless crap like on BB…
There should also be a way to filter the list of apps by technical requirements like: ads, internet-access, contact-DB access, location access, programming language, native/android, app size, etc… All of this info should be filed somewhere anyways, so it makes good sense to use it in search parameters…

Last friday, i made the pre order for my Jollaphone, and 10 minutes later, my N9 stopped working… So, i took my old E6, but it is very Hard after 6 mounths N9 and 6 months before Jolla…

Just an idea last day in my bathroom, mat it be possible Nokia to be the manufacturer of Jolla???
As Here from Nokia is free, what will be maps of Jolla!? Here or GMaps?!

There are less informations about quality of relation between Nokia and Jolla… Bref…

Also a Nokia ex-fan, hoping my present E7 won’t spontaneously self destruct like the old one did before a better phone comes along.
And Jolla might be it, although Qwerty is a major issue for me, and proper navigation is a must.
I’m not to bothered about camera quality, but I do miss the FM transmitter of my N8. I hope Jolla will continue Nokias record of providing the most engineering possible in a pocket sized device.
BTW I’m sick of this race for higher screen sizes and pixel counts, it seems that’s already been done to absurdity in the camera market, and no-one benefits.

Nokia can make “other halves” I can see Nokia making a “half” for their Here Maps, Camera, and their apps suite. Nokia after all is just an OEM. Id like a Home Integration Half – home entertainment -xbmc, pandora, etc, Home wifi via 4G, Home security/thermostat like Nest. The other half makes the phone exactly how you want it to be. Its brilliant!
