After a slowdown around ~ $1,000,000.- I was almost sure they'd miss the first stretch goal even. Now I find myself hitting 'reload' to see if the second stretch goal is still possible. We're at $1.720.035,- and there's only 13 hours left. ...

Well, it's hard to underestimate the power of a hype train/boat, so you have a point there.

3)Microsoft just gave their employees a $250 Christmas bonus they can spend anyway they like...
Hmm...so a significant number of them would spend it on the Jolla campaign. That's an odd point, but I couldn't think of anything else that would make more sense.

EDIT: BTW < $30,000
And it's still going. Wow...

Wow says it all! Btw, I was kidding about the microsoft bonus. Just sounded too good to resist saying. Hope it doesn't go viral!

177 €209 tablets left, if they sell all of them then Jolla will have raised an additional €40,000. It's possible.

Lol I couldn't tell if it was a joke until you said otherwise. It made too much sense.

If I had a say @ Jolla, I'd make sure this doesn't happen.

Finally bit the bullet and ordered Lastu case.

That is, after confirming from my wife that it does not actually look bad at all. Outsourced decision making.

Hopefully will also got the bonus in form of split-screen...

I wonder where the money typically comes from... You know, if it's Europe, we'll have to expect a decline overnight. If China, Russia, Australia, US&Canada are active, the story is different...
