Agree- news, bloggers, vloggers are picking it up. When directed to the website the information needs to be in order. It has been very slow for sales last days.
There needs to be more conversations online - Mastodon for example - no reactions to post.
Video content might help. maybe a thank you video for reaching the first and second goal.

I agree that Mastodon needs to be more than just merely broadcasting news. It’s an environment that rewards interaction, conversation.

Is there any word on whether accessories like cases and screen protectors will be made available such that they can be dispatched in the same shipment? I pretty much consider them essential.

Me too. I think they will as they were for C2.

Even The Register think there’s a missing headphone jack here.
It’s not obsolete tech as I can read it sometimes on this forum !

The guys that haven’t been able to make even navigation apps run for the test and now everyone in the comments thinks Sailfish has no GPS?

yeah, much as some folks here might insist that 3.5mm is dead and it’s just a small minority that still want it… I’m seeing a lot of complaints about its omission in convos about the new Jolla phone. if anything, it made me feel like I’m less behind the times than I thought. xD
that being said, like Jolla said, they can’t really afford to make the alteration to add it. it’s sad, but it doesn’t really seem like it’s up to them right now.

I would love an ToH that would turn it into an modern incarnation of a N900 including a 3.5mm headphone jack.

Hop they finally add VoWiFi to sailfishOS.

3.5mm audio jack has nothing to do with being behind the times but everything with phone manufacturers (mainly Apple, the rest are sheep) obsoleting technology that has been (and still is) working fine for decades, just so they could make more money selling stupid dongles.

If I hadn’t bought the Xperia 10 V months ago, which I still hope will get its camera and audio recording working, I would have joined the pre-order. For now, I’ll wait for the future Jolla 3

Apparently Jolla spent only 2500€ to market the pre-order campaign, rest has been organic growth/spread from community

Finnish phone case manufacturer Lastu Case (lastu.co) used to make beautiful and ecological covers and cases for Jolla 1, using wood, leather, wool etc. I approached them by email and asked them to consider to produce some cases for the new Jolla once we have them. One can always hope…

An N900 the other half with DAC+ 3,5mm jack and extra SD slot to dual boot Maemo Leste .. cough cough
Yes, Lastu other half cases were beautiful. so ecological that I still remember the “Birch” splinters in my hand.

7000 is the profitable threshold as far as I’ve read in maybe somewhere in the forum. So I suppose 7k is must have

Just to echo what a few others have pointed out, I also realised that a programmable privacy switch by itself can only be about as pointless as “voice assistant buttons” I’ve seen on some Samsung phones. There needs to be some way to cut power internally.
Indeed, theoretically a programmable switch could do anything, which is convenient, but relying only on software to disable whatever radio/sensor/etc. leaves much to be desired.
Librem phones and PinePhones have switches that cut power to things like cameras, modem, WiFi/BT radio, microphone, etc., which is how Snowden would do it. A privacy switch alone is how Android/Windows would do it, and history has shown that targeted attacks often managed to covertly record audio, video, location on the victim’s device without any kind of indication, even if they’re shown as disabled.
Unless this gets done properly, I feel like marketing it as a user-configurable switch would better represent its purpose (omitting “privacy switch” claim), since calling it as is gives a false sense of privacy. It wouldn’t be any different from enabling aeroplane mode, which is less than what seasoned Linux phone users have come to expect from a privacy switch.
Ultimately though… Purism markets their devices for such extreme use cases, whereas Jolla is more focused on reducing reliance on big tech. They are very distinct goals, so cutting power to specific components may be out of scope.
