From Twitter:

We'll have a ‪#Devaamo‬ hackday with @jollamobile sometime next month. Check back soon! ‪#Jolla
Might be an interesting event for those of us who are in Finland. Devaamo is pretty much the same people who organized the Finnish MeeGo Summit last year.

but i still want to be able to close apps or move them to multitasking with swipe motion

Windows 8 can do that. Not funny! Time to come up with something new and better

That's my point.

Hm, I just wonder what is this doing in "Competitors". TMO is not bound to Nokia, or is it?

Not bound to nokia, but the bills are paid by nokia, at least until next new year.

"We did _not_ get patents from Nokia. The article was, as Riitta Pessi correctly points out, mistranslated, and then spread rapidly."

W8 will "success" reason is most people are stupid followers and Microsoft cant make it fail so they will markettting it as hell.

But who cares! If Jolla only gets 2% of the market its a BIG success. So I personally dont give a **** if MicroNokia will sell better as long as Jolla is Linux based an as open as possible.

I think Jolla is Jolla and not part of Nokia is for reason already. And if they work with Nokia, it might always happen that another Elop will come and ruin things.

It depends on what of the SwipeUI. Swipe to close or minimize is a must

On Playbook i have to close using the close button at the top and I HATE it. Its so stupid way on a tablet/phone.

But I think they can take that without Nokia can do something about it cause that is an innovation taken from WebOS.
