Had not recently checked up on what Jolla is doing, but it looks like they dropped future plans for devices and concentrating solely on the OS.

Reminds me of when I tried to buy a Jolla phone after my N9 and that thing was nearly impossible to get in the US.



They are releasing Sailfish OS for the Single-SIM version of the Sony Xperia X in September: https://blog.jolla.com/sailfishx/

They've announced it will be available in September. That doesn't necessarily mean it will be released when they claim.

They have a history of releasing overly optimistic press releases and then failing to deliver on time or at all. [0]

Partnering is probably better than trying to crowdfund another device - at least one can easily flash the phone back to Android if Jolla can no longer support it.
