Jolla had a design partner for the Jolla Phone, what makes you think they didn't for the tablet?

The Aigo tablet says nothing of where the design originated, merely who it was licenced to.

Question for those of you that have gotten a tablet. Are you able to down load apps from Jolla store? Are they the same as phone apps? If so how do they scale on screen. Same question wrt android apps. Thanks!

EDIT: If you see some interesting differences, some screen shots might be good to show.

Im not Roberto and mine was sent to UK

Cost of buying tablet $212.80 - £152.75
+ I went through paypal so I could at least try and get some money back if it all went wrong, and I think they took 10% $20 -£14.34 in currency conversion

Postage - Shipping tax (at their end ) service charge and insurance $62.62 - £44.83

So far no tax this end


TOTAL Cost $295.42 - £211.92

Youbuy .com did give me a $5 new user credit and DHL was a few dollars cheaper, so account is currently actually $7.69 - £5.52 in credit!

The easiest way to do that is to not set up a PayPal account at all. This ain't the numbered Swiss bank account from the movies that the Nazis are always hiding their loot in.

But don't despair. Just use mine. When your refund appears, I'll send it to you soon(TM). You accept third party, out of state starter checks, right?

I received the information that the tablet arrived at home.

Date and time Status of Item Location
23/02/2016 17:53 Posted 100022
24/02/2016 00:31 Departed from export office Beijing
28/02/2016 09:42 Arrived at destination import office Zurich
28/02/2016 09:42 Held for customs inspection Zurich
29/02/2016 16:44 Departed from destination import office Zurich
01/03/2016 11:27 Delivered 121960

It's hard to stay concentrated at work knowing that…

The process was very long as I ordered the tablet at Yoybuy.com just before China went on holidays for 1 week (8th February).
I ordered this product: http://world.taobao.com/item/525246736574.htm (the price at that time was 1298 Y, it’s now 1880 Y).

Details of the cost:

• $209.84 Products fee
• $32.01 International shipping
• $20.98 Service fee
• $1.31 Customs Fee
• $7.92 Insurance Fee
• $0 Storage Fee
• $ --- Coupons Fee
• $272.06 Total

This is without the VAT.

Will post additional information later.

Maybe best ask this in the JT User Experience thread? I can download fwiw and the stock applications are modified for the tablet so they look fine.

JuhaniLassila owned up to it (using the Aigo design) back at the end of September last year on the Official Jolla Blog site

No, they admitted that it was based on a factory reference design that they modified. Aigo used the same design, with fewer customizations.
