This is... astounding - no colour screen phones unveiled (9210 and 7650 are PDAs and don't count  ). Interesting that the 3510 has MMS yet no colour screen, and the 3410 has downloadable games like the Z700 yet no colour screen. Have Nokia been asleep for two years? |

no, nokia has just been waiting for ericsson to jump ship
and since that hasn't happened, they're panicking now.

I would have to say that Nokia is definately behind the times with the colours screens but maybe they doubted the way a colour screen phone could have such a good standby / talktime. It's quite clever the way the T68 makes use of the screen and is quick to first turn off the lights and then goto to the screensaver which because of the black background uses very few pixels (clever) its going to be interesting to see the change in standby time due to the new chooseable screen savers.
If any one has two spare T68's about  (come on there must be someone) then after the mms upgrade try fully charging both phones setting one with the normal clock saver and one with a plain white saver and see the difference in standby times there DEFINATELY will be - but it'll be interesting to see. I reckon that if the phone will do 10 days if untouched (AT ALL!) then it'll be reduced by at least 2 days. what do you guys think? |

Super G > guess that you're referring to the 8310-style color phone right ?
According to what I know, it will have 65000+ colors.
Rumours have been flying around this model, some say it will be shown on Cebit, some say later.

Not at Cebit. Nokia are having problems with getting GSM colour screen phones to run without massively shortening the battery life, and they won't launch anything until they can make sure their battery life is at least as good as the T68. |
