The app situation is really not that bad. We're at a point where Sailfish will either diversify or die, and most apps are open source (except Jollas!). I've built lots of phone apps for the tablet with little or no problems. The one big hole is architecture filtering on openrepos. Warehouse works, and lots of devs have uploaded x86 packages with hi-res tweaks - a new version of quickddit went up there today with PPI based resizing on thumbnails.

One question on-topic:
Whats up with the split screen (Perk 2) and what has come to the partner space?
https://together.jolla.com/question/...201taalojarvi/
and use e.g. your browsers "search from page" -function with string "[partnerspace]", you'll see that something like that is progressing under the bonnet. And if you check out also few previous change logs, you'll see that it has been worked on quite some time.

You know... the folks that actually received their Jolla tablet have been rather quiet. Only one bloke came here and seemingly wanting to capitalize on the folks here and another sold tablet that went rather quietly.
No real praise, concerns, reports or much of anything here from actual owners. That concerns me more than just this cyclic argument about who has said/meant what and how not to get a refund.
Perhaps it is just time to let the anger go. Let the disappointment go. The folks with the device(s) aren't saying much. So why are the folks without the device continuing on? There will be some refunds, it's a failed crowd funding campaign (note: this is my actual first failed backed campaign for me) and there's not much more to it.
Oh well...
Like most of you I also wait for a (second) tablet, which I won't get, but since I pledged for it just to help the campaign get higher, Jolla can consider it a donation.

There was no stable linux tablet before or after the annoucement of Jolla Tablet®. I don't think there will be anything like the Jolla tablet within the future. The best thing todo right now is cherish the time waiting on a the unexpected delivery boy with a Jolla table.

It's not about praise. It's all about input. And to be honest, I'm quite ****ing tired of the noise here. Would be nice to bring back information to these forums as opposed to being inundated with anger and ill-informed opinion each time I log in.
That is all. Thanks for posting your opinions, those with the tablet. Would love to see/hear more.

My point though is that the N950 has a very negative connotation around here to quite a few users.
On the other hand, the folks with the initial tablet shipments - I count 3 or so in recent posts, 5 or 6 in total that I've counted - have largely been quiet.
The next 540, I have no faith that it'll be any better. The standard has been set - perhaps sell on eBay or here and take advantage of some folks... the rest, just remain quiet.
I know that can be taken as "bitter" - it's an observation. It would be a heap better than page upon page of "SCAM" and other proclamations ad nauseum.
Thanks for your input. It is honestly appreciated by the community. I hope you and the Jolla Tablet brethren set a better precedent than the N950 owners did (well... they were under NDA though)

All times are GMT. The time now is 06:50.
Reason i bought the tablet was to support Jolla and to access my music from NAS over Sonos. Works perfectly although i wish there would ever be a Salifish OS version so i can ditch Android. Bad you have to install Android support for only 1 App.
So basically there are happy owners and i am so glad i had the day free and watched the Jolla Talbet presentation online and stumbled on Indiego at the same time to buy as #75.
I still would have preferred that everybody gets their tablet and Sailfish Apps (paid or not) would be developed cause the tablet store is right now quite sad and i personally think wont change much now with under 700 tablets.
P.S.: I probably would also get one from Taobao if i didnt had mine now that someone flashed it succesfully.
