I have similar feelings about the whole thing, BUT hopefully there will be community ports for tablets from other vendors and with the other efforts to bring Android compatibility in too, everyone who wants a Sailfish tablet (with full functionality) can have one.

Got an email from DHL. The tablet is shipped from Hong Kong.
I am an IGG backer, who had paid VAT in September.

Actually they told us in October they didn't have the parts for the final wave and they would have to acquire them before the final wave could be manufactured (and in the worst case adapt the hardware design for new parts). In hardware business it is expensive to secure parts. Hardware companies still need to keep the costs of the product in a budget.

That's easy. You don't sell the whole stock but keep some of them as spare devices for handling warranty cases. My guess is that Jolla got 600 tablets and is keeping 10% of those as spare devices: 540 (90%) + 60 (10%) = 600.

Waaait, what?
Please clarify, you did not order an extra tablet from taobao but have gotten notice from the original IGG Campaign first wave shipment stalled in September?
That would be great news.

I am surprised as well. I had finished payment in September. The status was "on hold" since then. But last week it changed to "in picking". The status has not changed after that. But I have a tracking number now from DHL. Will keep you guys updated

Could be à Box with à survey, asking if you want a tablet or refund.
