Eh, guess nothing will ever be like Harmatten. Sure was Unique wish it could of prospered.

Yep, but it wasn't good enough or the timing of it was too late.

Can Tizen survive... Tizen follow Android style gui...
Can Sailfish survive... Sailfish Follow harmattan style gui...

sailfish follows harmattan's UX far less than tizen follows android's.
sailfish is more of a mixture of harmattan + 2-3 other UX's (that's not necessarily a good thing).

Samsung's first Tizen product is NX300M compact system camera, not smartphone



Tizen, the alternative operating system Samsung and Intel have been working on for some time, may be taking its sweet time to reach the smartphone market, but is has made its debut in one device. It has been implemented in the NX300M compact system camera Pocket-lint reported on at the beginning of October.

The camera is now out in Korea and is Samsung's first commercially available product featuring a Tizen core. It uses a special version of the software called Tizen Camera Platform, which also suggests that it could be the first of many.

Samsung has also released cameras featuring an Android experience, but the Tizen used by the NX300 does not seem similar or a rival to that strategy. Instead, Samsung revealed that it is an alternative to Linux. It cites a booting speed of twice as fast as Linux, and enhanced capture performance, with a 20-megapixel resolution and capability of shooting at nine shots a second.

The company has also admitted that its "end of 2013" previous promise for a Tizen smartphone release is unachievable and is now saying that it will come in the first quarter of 2014. The first wave will run Tizen 2.2.1, but Samsung is also currently working on Tizen 3.0 for Q3 2014, hoping to add multi-user accounts, 64-bit architecture for Intel and ARM chipsets, a new 3D graphics rendering engine and more.

Tizen vs Sailfish 1-0.

But a smartphone gives jolla Atleast 3 goals so they can soon get an equalizer and a lead.

Tizen Lite being developed for very low-end smartphones.

NOKIA joins the Tizen Association.

Not just Nokia. Tizen looking cooler and cooler. Where is that device? Galaxy note 4 with Tizen will smoke competition.

Remeber how many joined MeeGo and what came out of it?

A small screen device. But most important, nokia, didn't believe in n9 it was DOA. Samsung knows screen size is key and hopefully prepared to back it with som pocket money...
