But we know now that there were/are financial problems. The idea of making a tablet came too early, it was a mistake. And financial ptoblems are alarming not only towards the employees, but also to potential investors. So I can understand why they struggled s long before making this public.

I agree with most of what you say, except that Jolla were not very open about the display problems at first: they just said that they were having problems with it.
