Ex Nokia employees launch phone
Jolla:Ex-Nokia employees launch smartphone
Ex-Nokia employees launch a non-Windows smartphone.

From the pictures it looks to be an attractive phone,the homescreen has none of the (IMHO) awful hideousness of the current Nokia phones. Great that it runs Android apps too.

That’s £6.28 at today’s exchange rate.
UK National Minimum wage is £6.31 per hour.
How much do you value your business? I mean if it is not that important to you then great!
