I am yet to see any on the wild. Even Windows Phone has better sales.

I wonder how many of the Windows Phone users are Microsoft employees or affiliates. After all they're still a big company, with 127K employees around the world.

I get to see quite a few devices on the wild in German trains.

In the southern and eastern European countries, where we traditionally only use pre-paid phones and contracts are out of reach for most pockets, it is easier to spot Android and Windows Phones than iOS devices.

Are the ones using Windows Phones all Microsoft employees and affiliates then?

Windows Phone is backed by a $500B company. Jolla is a company started with ~$250M in funding.

Which only increases the issues of the company to stay afloat.

They need to manage a steady income of money for their product, which also includes captivating developers to target their platform.

This means adding developer evangelism to their costs, on top of the usual consumer oriented costs.

Alongside battling against Blackberry and FirefoxOS for that fourth place.

Not impossible, but very very hard with their budget.

One step after another. Sailfish is not yet fully matured, better sail slowly.

I think there are/will be enough people who are looking to an alternative to the apple-android-(wp)-mainstream, jolla will do well imho.

Is the phone really doing that well? It's not even available in the US and China.
