The price tag will be even bigger and people will be praising that this is it, and they have to have it, and obviously pay for it. It's 8k men!!! It has to cost!

Always the new and shiny. And always the need to have it. But people don't think why on earth do they need it? To evolve into a better person? To streamline work so they can do it faster and than evolve into a better person? Nope. To watch another **** on Netflix or play games for hours - you name it. Education, tooling for work so you can work less and... ahhh. What am I writing about. So unpopular. You are right. time to save money and buy a toy. This will push me further...

No hard feelings - just bitching around about today's world.

No hard feelings, my open source/ open hardware loving brethren.

I think we agree on many things. I feel people in general are caught up in this over consumerism upgrade buying pattern. And many feel they NEED the latest and greatest ... sign.

I used to be an overly progress type, but have learned that there is a cost to everything, beyond the prices on the label. The cost can be the environment, you mind, our relationships... etc.

But it is still real freedom ... no? To be able to choose to spend more than you make, to buy something new all the time, to spend your time on the computer instead of with friends or family. True freedom is being able to make mistakes.

So yeah, I hear yah. Todays world can be great or the most challenging life test. But still choose to believe that we all have more opportunities now WITH technology as it is to make something out of it. But we also can choose to wallow in the cramp of the internet, news, people. which can bring us all down.

Without smart caring people it would be a lot worst world, which is what I hope is my tiny part in the big game of life

Cheers

I won't even consider buying this until there is a fully working alternative OS like for example Sailfish ready to flash. Until then, any device with Android would just be a useless brick to me. I don't need more paper weights.

Gemini PDA got Sailfish quite fast, I think. I hope that also Fx will get SFOS soon.

I actually asked chenliangchen on Twitter whether Linux or SFOS would become available on the phone next to Android, and then I got banned...

It's up to the community to get SF and/or Maemo-Leste on this device.

... and it stands in contrast to the statement here:
http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...0&postcount=17

or can I read it the way, that the new device comes with stock android.

After Youyota I wouldn't be surprised if Jolla doesn't really want to talk to Chen about any future products, and it sound like Chen didn't have the best of time with them either to be fair.

But i'm sure chen will try and make sure the required pieces are available for community hybris ports of different systems

I am not sure what happened but I didn't and never banned anyone. Even not sure how to do that...

BTW I have actually answered similar questions multiple times. Will ship with Android by default, but will support other OSes as much as I can. Will start with Lineage OS and I will provide free device to the developer. Also SFOS and Maemo L or even Ubuntu Touch.

I have just checked my sources. No one has been banned. I don't know what you're talking about...
