Not surprising at all given that they haven't yet figured out what their product is.
(Note: if your product is an OS, then your customers are OEM's, not regular people. Haven't heard of _any_ efforts by Jolla to court OEM's.)
- toyg 11y agoI guess this is what they mean by "We’ve already had many interesting discussions with potential new partners about using Sailfish OS in their own projects". But yeah, if this was the original vision all along, it wasn't communicated very well. This is not the first "alternative" tablet that failed. It looks like pretty much all Linux-based alternatives to Android have disappeared or are struggling (the KDE one, Ubuntu, Maemo/Meego, FirefoxOS etc etc). Most of these projects have been way too optimistic about the sort of muscle required to significantly attack this market at such a late stage. Hopefully these developments will focus minds and get people to cooperate rather than compete.
