Re: [school-discuss] open source phone

Michael, I didn't know about Jolla. Thanks.

It may be less than ideal, but it does look better than what I can get at the local Verizon shop.

Its Wikipedia articles (also about Sail OS) look great, but ... four years old?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sailfish_OS

Here, however, is a recent press release: https://jolla.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/MWC2018_press_release_FINAL.pdf?x54860&x54860

Also, here is a little article on sim-free phones, of which class, Jolla is apparently a member?

While at that, I use Jolla 1 and can answer some questions. :)
(it's not nearly as free software as one could wish though)
