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 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.
I feel myself approaching that too despite my interest in Jolla. Was thinking about nixing the smart phone for just some cheap flip phone to make calls and being done with all this stuff. I’m already degoogled and off social media except Lemmy, and the jury is still out on whether or not I’ll stick around.
