Ok, i read that other topic about screens you posted mass. I came away confused though. I always thought the T610 had a tft screen, and most spec pages say it has. But i'm being told from another site that ethe T610 has an std(the guy meant stn though) screen. So what screen does the T610 have? And What's the difference between tft and stn?

Yes, T610 has STN (not STD! )

as for the difference, the best description I have seen is the one wrath000 posted in the thread that I linked to in my first reply of this thread but since you are on wap I will cut and paste that here...

TFD technology combines the excellent image quility and fast response times of TFT, with the low power consumption and low cost of STN.

TFD technology is an active-matrix technology, meaning that a tiny circuit (a diode) is located next to each pixel, allowing the pixel to be turned on and off individually. This permits faster response time and greater contrast compared to passive-matrix technology."

Compared to other types of LCD technology, TFT features excellent image quality and response time, but uses more power, and is more expensive.

- "STN (Super Twisted Nematic) is a type of LCD (liquid crystal display) flat-panel display technology.

STN uses less power and is less costly than TFT technology, but at the expense of image quality and response time.

STN technology is a passive-matrix technology, meaning that each pixel must be "refreshed" individually many times each second. To accomplish this, the liquid crystal must react slowly enough to maintain state between refreshes. This keep response times relatively low, and limits brightness and contrast."

Thank you :-) dunno how i missed that stn bit before? So It's quasi tft then :-D btw, a good way to link wappers to a topic is to tell them to bookmark any topic and post the topic number telling them to change it in the phones bookmarks.

By bookmark i mean use the phones bookmarks, and not Esatos new excellent bookmarking feature. LoL! You appear to have linked me to this very topic with that number :-D and all this just gave me an idea for a new wap addition. Enter topic number, it would help wappers in situations like this.

Spooky! I used your last post as the bookmark, changed the topic number and it took me directly to the post that you quoted. :-D they must both be the same reply number.
