Smartphone maker Jolla has unveiled its first tablet dubbed ‘the Jolla Tablet’ with Sailfish OS 2.0 on board.

First 2,000 backers can pre-order the tablet for a price starting at $189, while the next 1,000 bookers will get the tablet for $199. The company aims to raise $380,000 in the next 21 days to develop the Jolla Tablet, with first batch expected to ship in June next year.
