I think SE even has set the date later, probably they will release before week 20. They just do not want people to expect it in week 16, otherwise their mailboxes and call-centers will get an overload of people complaining or asking. SE has dealt with all rumours by updating the t68 FAQ. |

How to record voice labels using the Bluetooth™ Handsfree
If you record voice labels through the Bluetooth™ Handsfree, you will obtain a better performance then if you record them directly in the phone.
How to do this:
Go to [EDIT VOICE]
On the question [ADD VOICE COMMAND?], press “Yes”
Immediately press the "Yes" key of HBH-20 for 2 seconds (until the short beeps are heard)
You are now too late for the voice label, but press “No” on the phone and record again.
From now on the headset will record all the labels you like until you press the "No" button.
So
- As many labels as you want can be recorded in one session
- The headset will beep after which you can speak the voice label
What is needed in order to start using WAP?
Before you can start using the WAP functionality in your phone, you need to enter the WAP profile settings.
This can be done in 3 ways;
The settings are already entered when you buy the phone
You can enter them manually. Please consult your user guide for help
Your receive the settings in a text message (over the air) and this is by far the easiest way. To do this you can use the WAP configurator at this site.
I cannot receive any calls. Why?
You may have diverted your incoming calls to another phone number.
You may have set the Accept calls option to From no one or From list. Select From all instead.
You may have selected Fax or Data as the next incoming call.
You may have GPRS only set for a data account. Select Automatic instead.
Why can't I send or receive SMS?
If the number to your service center is not saved on your SIM card, you must specify the number yourself.
Otherwise you cannot reply to received messages or send your own.
To check the service center number:
Scroll to [MESSAGES], "Yes", [OPTIONS], "Yes", [SMS], "Yes", [SERVICE CENTRES] "Yes". If no number is found, select [ADD NEW?] and press "Yes"
Enter the number, including the international + sign and country code, and press "Yes".
Note! The number to your service center is provided by your operator.
What is the Option key used for?
The option key gives the most common options for the function currently in use.
The option key provides help menus for certain functions.
Can I assign a picture to a contact in the phonebook?
No, you can’t assign a picture to a contact.
I can not answer an incoming call or start a Voice Activated call by pressing the button on the Bluetooth™ Headset.
This is most likely caused by a setting in your phone. Please check if the Bluetooth™ mode setting is set to On. If not, please change the setting to On.
To change the settings;
Scroll to [CONNECT], press "Yes"
Choose [BLUETOOTH], press "Yes"
Choose [OPERATION MODE] and press "Yes"
Set the mode to [ON] and press “Yes”
I don’t get any indication of charging in the phone. What is wrong?
With an empty battery it can take up to 30 minutes for the charging icon to appear in the display.
What is “Magic Word” and how do I use it?
You record a magic word and use it as a voice command to allow total handsfree access to voice control. The magic word is especially suitable when using a car handsfree kit.
Can I use my Bluetooth™ Headset together with this phone?
Yes, you can.
How do I do to adjust the display contrast?
To adjust the display contrast:
Scroll to [SETTINGS], press "Yes"
Scroll to [DISPLAY], press "Yes"
Scroll to [CONTRAST], press "Yes"
Adjust the contrast.
How do I include a picture when sending an SMS?
First make sure that the long message function is on:
Scroll to [MESSAGES], press "Yes"
Select [OPTIONS], press "Yes"
Select [SMS] and press "Yes"
Scroll to [LONG MESSAGES], press "Yes"
Choose [ON] and press "Yes"
To insert a picture in a text message:
Scroll to [MESSAGES], press "Yes"
Select [SMS] and press "Yes"
Select [WRITE NEW] and press "Yes"
While entering your message, press the "Option" key
Scroll to [INSERT OBJECT] and press "Yes"
Select [PICTURE] and press "Yes"
Select one of the picture groups and press "Yes"
Select the picture you want to insert in your message and press "Yes"
Is it possible to download / receive pictures?
Yes, pictures can be downloaded via WAP pages. It is also possible to receive pictures sent from other EMS supportive mobile phones. You can also receive pictures using Bluetooth™ and/or IrDA (infrared).
Is it possible to download pictures with Bluetooth™ and/or IrDA?
Yes, you can download a picture to be used as background.
What is the maximum size of a picture that can be downloaded to the phone and in what format does it have to be?
The picture must be in GIF (Graphical Interchange Format, 87a and 89a without animations) and the size 8 KB (3 KB using WAP services).
Will using the GPRS functionality have a negative effect on the battery performance?
No, the GPRS does not impact the battery performance in any negative way.
What is EMS?
EMS stands for Enhanced Messaging Services and it allows you to personalize your phone by enabling you to; add pictures, animations and sound to text messages. It also allows you to chose your own ring signal, background picture, attach pictures to names in the phone book; and send & receive EMS messages.
Is a new SIM required in order to use the GPRS functionality?
No, you do not need a new SIM to be able to use GPRS. However you do need to contact your Service Provider in order to add this service to your subscription.

i wouldn't call it "official" when it's only posted on a FAQ.
USUALLY, something is official when it's announced to the public through an article on their website or through another website, not just on a FAQ where not many ppl will go. they would ACTUALLY want ppl to see it!
