While Jolla was saved last month by a fresh round of financing, even now not everyone who backed the Jolla Tablet project on IndieGoGo will be receiving a tablet.

Jolla announced in their New Year's Greeting, "The bad news here is that we are not able to complete the production to fulfill all contributions. In other words, all of our backers will not get a Jolla Tablet." But Jolla's Juhani Lassila says that people won't go empty-handed but they are working on "some positive surprises" for those not receiving a Jolla Tablet. Details on how these backers will be compensated has yet to be explained.

The rest of the Jolla New Year's greeting message from earlier this week goes on to talk about how they'll be focusing upon Sailfish OS development and licensing in 2016.
