Magnets and cellphones - Esato archive

Posted by ericsson-freak
Guys, is there anyway that magnets in cellphone pouches can in some way or another, damage a cellphone's color display??? I mean look what happen when you hold a magnet near a PC screen.

No, TFT-screens (used by T68/i and T300/310) is not affected by magnets, and since the most common computer-monitors are CRT-monitors they will start flicker and display strange colors if a magnet is close enough.
