Jolla? Long live Nokia N9 :(

After HTC One, iPhone 5s, Nexus 5, Nokia N9, One + One, and most recently the BlackBerry Z10 - I bought the Jolla phone. I was hoping for originality and innovation. I was not disappointed :) Sailfish OS is quite different. Maybe SO different? Few intuitive and highly underdeveloped. Just compare eg. add attachments to e-mails, no way to disable the program with a gesture (not talking about tucked it away in the background), select options by uncomfortable pull-up menu (walking down the street it is difficult to choose the right option - I must stop to do it), and finally firmly controversial UI design ... It's a matter of taste, but just compare the fully mature, beautiful and practical UI of MeeGo or Blackberry OS 10. In a word - MUCH remained to be done to be able to Jolla can fight in the real market. I am passionate and tech-freak, but my wife after 4 minutes with Jolla said: take this crap from me! I am sad because of this ... I hope that each update will improve situation, but I'm worried about the distance that separates Sailfish OS MeeGo - which in some sense is derived ...
