"utterly busy with partner negotiations especially in Asia"

I don't know what kind of partnership they are looking into, but I sometimes wonder what it would be like if a successful HW manufacturer would license Sailfish and produce a high-end hardware.

Vote up the answer with the manufacturer you like best and add comments to explain why. This is not meant all too serious. But still, the result of the poll can be an indication of what the community would love to see in the future.

I don't want to be picky, but I guess they are talking Sailfish 2.0 "partner space" partners, here...

@StaticNoiseLog please keep your personal requirements out of the answers - teasing is ok though ;)

@chemist: OK! Let's add reasons why we like those companies in the comments to the "answers".

Maybe one should actually discuss in another thread if it would make sense for Jolla to license Sailfish to other companies. Google and Microsoft do it. Apple does not. Both business models seem to work. I think it might be good if Jolla got some additional manpower to help with Sailfish IF they choose their partner(s) wisely.

I would care more about that they are waterproof.

And Sony respects that an FM receiver belongs into any smartphone. (William's comment referred to the original answer, where FM receiver was mentioned.)

HTC

I really liked my HTC Desire HD. Excellent hardware then. And they are back with the great HTC One M9+. Would love that one with Sailfish!
