It would be good if he applied his talents to another exclusive design.

I have just checked the date on mine and it says 03W24, which is next week but 2 years ago. Making it nearly 2 years old. No probs so far.

>*<<*<* is the basic  service menu code. <**< works to find your phones network locks. These should work on every from T68 to P910 to K750.
Have a look around, this code is always being asked for...

Part from Eric Ahlgren interview: 
What can a grand piano possibly have to do with an advanced camera phone?
"That's partly where the inspiration for the high-gloss, finish on the phone came from. And look," he says picking up the T610 and turning it sideways. "If you hold it like this, I think you can see where the digital camera comes into it. And see how natural it is to press the shutter button."
You designed the T68 too didn't you? What was on your list for that phone?
"Some of it was the same. Like stylish and ergonomic. But then there were words like curvy, sexy, polysensual and trendy so it's a bit different from the T610. I should qualify the part about curvy, though" he continues, looking thoughtful and picking up the phone again. "Actually the T610 doesn't have a single straight line. Even though the total effect isn't curved at all."
I take the phone in my hand for a closer look and see, to my surprise, that it's true. The curves are extremely subtle, but they're there. They seem to give a sort of inner tension that make the T610 that much more exciting. Now that I have it in my hand, I notice something else as well. It feels like it was meant to be there. And the words, "I want one," escape my lips. Erik smiles, which leads me to my next question.
Tell me what the best parts of your job are?
"One thing is encountering all the different aspects that have to come together in a product. A new design is a synthesis of disciplines like engineering, acoustics, socio-cultural behavior, logistics and more. Working with the people who bring their expertise from all of these different areas is very rewarding. Basically you learn a lot."

Thanks for posting that Maki101. He clearly enjoys his work. It is also interesting to note that the Dual Front Concept originated with his T610 design.

No problems, t-six-ten was revolution in many things like camera concept, quick share button, menu, form, screen and so on . . . :-)

T610 is coming close to T68i place as timeless masterpieces. Have you seen how good this two models work?, maybe that inspiration that came from the design department inspired the rest of departments to do theyre best

Timeless indeed. I dont think  have a better designed handset. In fact I would say the nearest thing to a classic they have done is the T68. The S700 is a cool wacky design but the T's simplicity is what makes it so attractive. Some designs, like the K700, struck me as being a bit fussy.
Mind you, the K600 is a bit of a looker. .
