Hi EricSony!

The SP I usally use to upgrade said a minute ago that they didn't know anything about the new MMS-update... And SE Norway said it will be released when the T68i hits the stores. But it seems like some guys in Sweden and Denmark already have been able to upgrade... Hope you can give us some real facts!

Thanks!

I just thought of something bad! Seeing as SE is releasing a new phone, T68i, they will be charging more for it than the T68 in the shops! So if they release the s/w to make the T68 the T68i, people could in theory get a T68i for the price of a T68 by buying the T68 and upgrading!!! Isn't that bad for business???!!! I think the s/w will be released after the T68i has been released, which is not good, or they will charge for the upgrade!!!!!!!! Have SE ever charged for upgrades in the past?

Those people from SCs' probably know less than us when it comes to the T68. They probably dont really care as much as we do coz they dont got no t68s of there own.

Well, all the SCs could actually charge for updates, and here in switzerland the ericsson shop itself does, but none of the others...

OK go here.... apparently its about a month or so for software upgrade... no hardware differences that affect actual operation

That artical kinda proves my point! They will not realease a free s/w upgrade to make the T68 the same as the T68i until they has started selling the T68i for a while!

Hi,

I mentioned yesterday on another thread that I thought MMS was available on Orange - this is incorrect. No UK networks are currently supporting it - it's likely to be introduced in about June. Therefore I see no reason for Ericsson to offer the upgrade here until that point. When it does happen it is very unlikely that it will cost anything though.
