Erika of Ghost Volta: "Independent Finland-based designer, developer and seller of smartphones Jolla Mobile (pronounced “Yola”) is all the buzz in the smartphone world since unveiling its first product on Monday and rightfully so! It’s a brand new concept from a brand new company with a deep focus on innovative design and intuitive functionality. Keep in mind the device that was unveiled a week ago (May 20, 2013) is just a prototype and many of the parameters could still be changed."
Around 600 backers will end up receiving Jolla's crowdfunded Sailfish tablet - others are promised refunds.
Finnish mobile maker Jolla has a small batch of tablets ready to send to early backers, but said it does not have enough in production for everyone.
Finnish mobile OS maker Jolla, whose Sailfish platform is one of the few remaining alternatives trying to fight the Android-iOS duopoly, has pulled out of its latest financing death valley by closing a delayed Series C financing round.
Simple to use OS that could have some potential in the market if the prices are kept low.
I agree. Such a great concept. Here's to hoping it doesn't get lost in the crowded market.
