Two pieces of computing history just met.

@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?

[carlosarm@mastodon.social]

@themipper @jolla looks nicestalgic idk.. creamy groovy, but i think gonna cost a high price for the rare and no everybody knows that retro hardware

[smyru@social.vivaldi.net]

@richlv Yeah, I get your point. I was surprised myself, too. @malveus @jolla

[themipper@mastodon.social]

@CarlosARM @jolla yeah, but would probably not cost more than the commodore phone itself. And if people remember commodore than they surely will remember the Amiga.

[golemwire@social.golemwire.com]

@jolla@techhub.social @AnimeAndVisial@mastodon.social They allow "sideloading" of APKs, actually, which run in some sort of Android-compatible container. I hope you're right, though Peri Fractic's article on the Callback seems to suggest it is actually locked-down.
Hopefully it'll be "rootable", so there's at least some way for the user to exercise control. That's just fundamental.

@raketti If you don't have a big data pool to sell for advertisement (respecting privacy), you need to get paid for your product itself.

It's up to you, what you're willing to pay with: Money or personal data.

[raketti@mastodontti.fi]

@Knattodon very true. ️ I’m already moving from iOS to Sailfish with Jolla’s new phone. I was just surprised that a clam phone would cost almost 500€. But, the times we live in, right?

[thatonepersonwithaface@todon.eu]

@AnimeAndVisial @jolla I was thinking the same thing about the "no email" thing, like, I can understand the need to disconnect from work, but email is not a big time consumer, least not for me. Flip side, if I do need to check an email (and people other than my work or advertisers do email me, my roommates frequently send me emails), that means I'll have to get back home to my computer

[carlosarm@mastodon.social]

@themipper @jolla im talking about the commodore phone.. , is suprising that some company make that devices, i know we can do it with the rasperry pi and other wireless circuit
