Tusen Tack!!
I have to admit I even never tried searching for solution, jost got it given it would not work....

My only fear about the 1gb is how will ACL respect that because those apps are normally bloated and that's without adding in the actual process for compatibility.
MeeGo was crazy efficient. So I can assume that SailfishOS is as well. But 1gb, true multi-tasking + Android compatibility is where my concern for the 1gb of RAM comes in.
We'll see though. I'm still hopeful.
But if Jolla and 3rd success to make native good apps that Android compability is not used more than when you really desperatly need that X/Y/Z app.
Atleast what I hope will happen in the long run even if I realise its probadly a dream

An Angry Birds Other Half would be pretty cool, and very marketable. It would also be a nice touch, if I'm not mistaken, the first platform they ported AB (from iOS) to was fremantle in 2010.

Jolla confirmed that the virtual keyboard is based on the open source project Maliit - just like on the N9 
source
I hope there will be also Swype support and/or some nice and innovative features (like on the BB10 keyboard)

Maybe that's part of the point? To lure users to use/lobby for native Sailfish applications, while not restricting the user from accessing their favourite ones that otherwise aren't available?
Let's simplify. Most 4.x Android devices have more than 1gb of memory and they're running native. Android is bloated. Imagine having only 1gb of RAM and you're then going to run an compatibility layer.
That's a potential problem. I've stated before that ACL is/should be seen as a good thing. I'm now stating that the 1gb RAM could be a future concern.

Well, it did look possible when they released the OH specs, but here's semi-confirmation: you can stack Other Halves. Providing somebody makes one stackable, obviously.

As an aside with RAM though - I am no stranger to low RAM devices, and often I too would express the same sentiment as you, but I will say, when I recently got upgraded from a 3GB RAM computer to an 8GB RAM computer (as well as similar jumps in specs across the board), it does make a pretty noticeable difference for my use cases. It's subtle and minor, but it pervades everything in a way that adds up. So while I too look at people decrying 1 GB of RAM on a mobile device as too low and facepalm at it, the benefits it can bring are definitely sufficient that I wouldn't call it 'mindless ranting' for just that.
--. I guess it's too late to now abort and go for something more sane (Slackware).But seeing how apt-get/aptitude keeps on "Building dependency tree" and "Processing triggers for man-db" again and again and again sort of reminds me how important is good and well-behaved software.
I used to sorta like Debian. Now I hate them. You can do a lot with a little bit of RAM, but modern software is just FUBAR.

I do acknowledge your point though, but I'll explain my rationale: I am _not_ interested in running Android applications (Android native, Android "java", Android whatever). I will be happy to very occasionally put up with a slow Android application where there is no alternative to Sailfish (e.g., an airline applicaiton that holds your boarding pass). That's the use I'm planning to give Android applications running on Sailfish.
All this said, you may guess that I'm making a massive assumption: Sailfish will come with all the basic applications that most users use (e.g., you won't need to use Android's Facebook client, or even worse: an IMAP client!).
There are a lot of valid other points in this thread anyway (maximum memory for Android applications, how much RAM other Android phones have, don't buy a Jolla to use Android applicatoins, etc.). Let's see what happens...

I dont get what OTH and AB could use together?
