Revision history [back]

OK so I'm one of the 7.5k late to the party (well not really I had an N900 and watched Maemo get thrown under the bus).

What's the pla/roadmap for Jolla 2? People powered is all well and good but I expect that the majority of us will expect that: - browsing - email - streaming - social media will be solid - not rock solid, but solid. The world has changed since Fremantle. Last roadmap I could find is a year old. Reading the questions I'm seeing calls for a full featured browser, issues with app compatibility. I'm a tech but not a mobile dev tech so unless you need some solid DB optimizations done I'm not your guy.

I don't care whether the solution is to use Android apps in a VM or Sailfish native apps but what I'm reading here is that the native apps are not mature enough and the Android VMs interactions with Sailfish are not brilliant. That's going to be a lot of fun in May.

What I do care about is that the UX of Jolla (OS + Apps (they are inextricable)) is a close approximation of what we've become used to -- not the interface but the content delivery. It is competing directly with the iPad mini & Nexus 7 (they're in your specification comparison) and what I expect most of us are after is a device roughly comparable with them. We're all several years invested into various platforms (Evernote, Facebook, Skype, Netflix,google play, your preferred multi-platform password vault and cloud storage) and regardless of our allegiances my friends aren't moving from either skype or facebook in the near future.

What's the plan/roadmap for Jolla 2? People powered is all well and good but I expect that the majority of us will expect that: - browsing - email - streaming - that:

• social media media
