Now that the Jolla phone is out of stock, should I assume that there will be no more devices available in future?

The problem with HW is real. Turing appears to be vaporwear and the whole design is mediocre at best, FP2 -when it officialy ends up having SFOS installed on it- is a product designed with a goal other than making an awesome phone for the end user and the Aquafish is pretty meh also.
HW appears to be much more difficult to get right despite what the average entrepreneur believes. :/
I would like to see stable release of Sailfish on One Plus X. I know there is a port of it on this phone but in alpha stage.

Hopefully the upcoming Nokia-branded android phones will get official Sailfish OS ports.
The road indeed leads uphill for Jolla but I'd rather hope than nag. Sailfish OS is so good it would be nothing short of a sin to drop the ball now.
As for Nokia-branded phones, well, I'd try any Sailfish OS phone. Asian, african or european doesn't really matter to me.

Jollas have been out of stock several times in the past and this is about the Nth question about it. None of us knows if it is out of stock or discontinued. As long as it is out of stock it is probably just that, out-of-stock.

PuzzlePhone was promised to get some kind of Sailfish support and release date should be autumn 2016. I hope it is full official support from Jolla with all the good stuff and not just random port.

I'm pretty sure Turing will appear it's not as if they are a fly-by-night company my days - get a grip

In India the Intex AquaFish will go on sale so there will be maybe a way to get these devices over to Europe

@JamesBRD - I'm not sure anyone here can answer that and I certainly wouldn't expect an answer from Jolla themselves, at least not here on TJC.
Alternatively, here's one on eBay UK for sale (New item, posts worldwide apparently, from ESTONIA - read full advert on ebay); http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Jolla-Smartphone-16GB-White-/222121313664?hash=item33b7764580:g:82oAAOSw3mpXGyGx

tortoisedoc ( 2016-05-21 19:10:59 +0200 )editJolla C just came out.
JoHe ( 2016-05-29 13:13:42 +0200 )edityes, and it sold out @JoHe - there are no more phones - Jolla is NOT a hardware company, at least not any more, they are a software/OS company now.
The Jolla C (C for Community) is not going on SALE as such, i.e. not available in the Jolla shop or Amazon or anywhere else, but only through offerings from Jolla - and as stated, it sold out!
I found and posted this yesterday on another link here at TJC , word directly from Jolla via Twitter;
