Update: there's a denial, which in turn is also being questioned. Conclusion:
nope, not happening. Russian manufacturer Yota, well known for its Yotaphone
dual screen phones, has announced that its next devices will no longer operate
using Android but Sailfish, an alternative developed by former Nokia engineers
at Jolla. Interesting, if not a bit of an odd decision. One has to wonder what
prompted this decision, because even though I like Sailfish for what it
represents, it's far from a true alternative to Android or iOS. Maybe Yota
knows something about Sailfish 2.0 we don't? I'm intrigued.
