Two pieces of computing history just met.

Commodore is returning to phones, and it chose Jolla's Sailfish OS to do it. The Commodore Callback 8020 is a flip phone built for stepping away from the feed: privacy designed in, your data kept yours.

@jolla Anyone looking for a Commodore-branded 2000s-style flip phone running a Linux-based mobile operating system? (See post above.)

[raketti@mastodontti.fi]

@jolla first I was like WOW!

Then I was like:"430€! 🤯"

[elbeetoots@mastodon.nl]

@jolla Cool! It's even got an ear picker!

(Yes, it's the antenna, but it has multifunctional applications )

[malveus@mastodonsweden.se]

@jolla nice ... but ... whatsApp? No.

[bruno@mamot.fr]

@jolla now we want Sailfish OS on something like Sidephone https://www.sidephone.com/

[niksii@mementomori.social]

@raketti Same. First got excited but then I saw the price and I can forget this phone. @jolla

[alsvha@sunny.garden]

@jolla This seems interesting. Gonna keep an eye on it.

[ay@m.indefinitely.social]

@jolla Built-in FM radio! I'm sold

[smyru@social.vivaldi.net]

@malveus I would assume, you shall be able to delete it. @jolla

[minus9@hachyderm.io]

@jolla Just seen the price

[proprietedusage@eldritch.cafe]

@jolla why so expansive

[sl@pleroma.envs.net]

@jolla@techhub.social I would have preferred proper qwerty keyboard. But using the only European mobile OS is a plus.

[mojojo@troet.cafe]

@jolla A bit overpriced, but nice.

[me@joshuastrobl.social]

@jolla Congrats on the partnership. Looking forward to seeing how this turns out!

[richlv@mastodon.social]

@smyru @malveus @jolla Makes the "privacy designed in" a bit shaky

[animeandvisial@mastodon.social]

@jolla Not sure about the blocking web browser and social media part, just let the user do whatever they want. I have no problem with that as the default setting, just let the user unlock it later on. Do not act like the parent of the user.

[pixeldorf@mstdn.social]

@jolla omg

[d1@autistics.life]

@jolla will it run #Deltachat? #FDroid?

[themipper@mastodon.social]

@jolla the more #sailfishos powered devices the better!

And now: Can I get my #Amiga phone with a blackberry type keyboard? All in Amiga styling and plastic?
