What Is Jolla To You?
A really nice little teaser video has popped up on Jolla’s YouTube channel in the last 24hrs:
So what is Jolla to you ?
To me Jolla represents hope, choice and freedom.
If I was to come up with some catchy slogans like the ones in the video, here are some off the top of my head:
rebel pirates of the open seas
solid crew, open seas, sail on
just another part of me
individual freedom
evolution, revolution
It seems the main Jolla website has also gone through a few changes as well with a new ‘share’ button on the home page which takes you through to a new page where you can pick one of the badges as shown in the video and share it with your friends/followers – go and have a look and help spread the word. :-)
How do you see Jolla and what do Jolla mean to YOU ?



Cooperation instead of Control
Definitely!
Cooperation instead of Corporation
To me, Jolla is the best choice of phone considering my privacy… or at least I think it is, I don’t know how facebook integration will fit into the picture. Also, as finn, I see Jolla as the future of phone industry in Finland. They have many innovations in their OS and UI, and The Other Half concept has a potential to be a hit if it can be used to extend the hardware of the phone and if they have the patents for it. I do think that Nokia will rise (40mp camera phone coming), but chances are that Windows will buy the Nokia devices unit…
The light at the end of the tunnel!
The light at the end of the tunnel!
The amber in the slew of mud!
The Popeye of the seas!
The hugry fella who’s gonna chomp down all apples and berries!
Believe me Jolla fans, once these people come out in the market, they’re gonna burst through all the debris (read ‘crappy other OSes’) like oil shooting off the ground!
Devices without bloat.
Hope that my N8 might have replacement after all. Even if for not photography and navigation (fingers crossed…)
Hope that I might after all have a phone that does not cost handing details of my intimate life to big A, G or M.
Hope that I might have phone that makes life of big N little more difficult just in sake of freedom and Orwell & Kafka.
I hope that Jolla is different, I wanna change, but not to change… I hope in a different business model, I hope in just ONE device supported through the years by a “little” software company which maintains the OS capacity at the competitors level, working hard on the software side… I would pay for this… I would pay an optimized software which permits to me to not change the device after few months or one year… As someone said years ago:”Think different”… Jolla, you did this with the other half, then, keep it up!!!!
Jolla, change without changing (I hope)
If things turn out all right, Jolla would be my personal lifeboat to get away from the status quo.
Any news if the UI will be open source?
Last time I’ve checked they still weren’t sure.
Would be a major requirement for me.
hoping for a hardware landscape QWERTY keyboard other half, a worthwhile successor to the N900
the software is coming from the people who brought us Maemo & MeeGo, so, sail on!
Hey! I was contemplating that probably once Jolla launch their phone along with the Other Half, couldn’t someone just make their own other half using a 3D printer? Like say if they do not release a H/W k/b other half (just incase they dont) wouldn’t it be possible for a few fanatics to team up and design one? I mean making a PCB is shit easy today. So well, just a suggestion. What say people?
