I've got nothing more to say. I guess I'm just excited. Another quarter year until shipment, but I guess I will forget about it as I did before and then again be surprised 😅

I've just finalized my Jolla phone purchase

The hardware looks great. I figure it's about time for saturated colors to come back into tech after a decade of shades of black and white.

    I pre-ordered at the start, but opted to cancel.

    There were a couple of question marks over chip manufacture and compatibility via the Android layer that i wasn't sure about, and it hit me that what i really wanted was to distance myself entirely from the pocket computer.

    I've got a de-googled, open source tablet if i need to do anything, a computer, and a phone if i want to make or receive a call.

    Keeping me hooked into the 24 hour news cycle, surveillance capitalist drama, isn't something i should be nurturing.

    Me too
    I'm kinda afraid, that some stuff won't work and I can't keep it as a daily driver, but at the same time I'm super hyped 😁

    To be honest, I'm not expecting it to be my daily driver, but I'd be pleasantly surprised if.

    Oh, come on, don't kill my dream of having a fully functional Linux phone with Android App support ;⁠-⁠)

    At least it's my plan to use it as a daily driver
    As just a gimmick, it would be too expensive. So yeah, I really hope to replace my Android phone with it.

    Maybe I need to get a TAN generator for my bank account, but else, I think, I should be fine with it

    At least I hope so - and my hopes are really up ;⁠-⁠)

    But maybe I'm just too hyped at the moment...

    Will it support the el-north american bands?
