Jolla smartphone launched

The Jolla handset’s Sailfish platform has been developed from the MeeGo operating software, Nokia’s last open-source platform

Those tiles just remind of the 1st incarnation of the Xperia - the X1.
And that's not a good thing :erm:

Annoying slow ^

I would love to give one a go!! I was a big fan of the whole Meego plan, was pretty sad when it was canned initially and don't really like the Samsung control of Tizen.

Hopefully at some point it will be possible to put Sailfish on my handset and give it a go.

Now I just need to figure out how to get one of these shipped to South Africa.

@jes: Any ETAs from the local network operators?

Hope it has removable storage or he's going to be peeved.

Well, it has access to "certain" Android and WP apps. It actually launches with HERE.

Looks sweet, but the Bezel is too damn big. Meego still has the best UI imo.
