I got a leather one (kondor) with a hole in the middle thats made just for the T68 from carphone warehouse £9.99

Whilst on this subject I think Ericsson should come up with a better screen that does'nt scratch so easy and give us all an upgrade like they do with software.
Whats the point of having a flash phone only to have it covered up.
All those who agree please say I (LOL)

yeah they should have developed a better screen by now, they have had experience in making phones before this one so they should have developed a tougher on by now!! apart from that an amazing phone.

I am reading all thoose posts from people who have left their screen cover on (the silly plastic-shit that comes with the phones when they are new I guess?). I am just amazed how damn fun this is, buying a thing for a couple of hundred dollars - then beeing afraid of using it properly. Why not put up a fund, savings account or something when you bought the phone - then you maybe could afford a new shitty pice of plastic when the other one wears out?

I have used my t68 nonstop since the very day it was realesed here in Sweden, and the actual scratching is nearly unnoticeable. I try to be careful with keys etc. in the same pocket, otherwise I do what I think it was made for - beeing USED.

Regards,

theres this phone polishing cream called 'Displex'. I have tried it & It workes for MINOR scratches only.

It says in the directions to use a cotton cloth, but dont listen to that. I If you do use a cloth, it'll scratch the screen like hell!! USE A COTTON PAD INSTEAD.

this thing only costs £4

Yeah the Displex is really good for removing minor scratch's. it makes the screen look like new again.
you can get it in a tube or in a little sachet form.
if you are using the tube, try to use a "lint free" cloth, they are usally used to cleaning len's on Glasses.
If you get the Sachet, you get the polish and a cloth, enough for one or two applications, depending on how badly the screen is scratched!

they cost, €5 for the tube(between 10 and 20 applicatioins)
and €1.20 for the sachet!

hop you find this useful!

If you live in Sweden or Norway, I can recommend a product that you can buy at Clas Ohlson. They got a tube with some strange cream, and it fixes the scratches on the phonedisplay. Very handy!

I think most people will say that when they get something brand-spanking new, they want to keep it in that condition (e.g. new watch, new shoes, and yes, even new phone) despite the horrendous amount of money spent on em with the intention to use it for function rather than looks!!!

I must admit I have my original plastic sticky thing on my phone as am one of the people I label above. I have been very careful with my phone although I know the day I scratch it, it'll break my heart, but soon after that, I won't care anymore and treat it like crap and prob throw it about a bit.

Let these people have their moment of scratch free happiness, they'll soon succumb to the inevitable of realising that nothing stays brand new forever, i know i'm enjoying looking at my *brand new* phone.

As for cases, I've stuck with the Ericsson belt holster thingy as I think the leather case from cpw looks rubbish, tacky and cheap(note: own personal opinion, although the latter point is true £4.99 is cheap!).

Cheers

Just wanted to say that I always carry my T68 in my pocket (sometimes even with my keys) and I haven't had a single scratch on my display.

well guy i am telling you instead of the cotton clot just go to a leather shop and get chamois leather(no lint no nothhing) its the best for cleaning.So the displex can be rubbed on with that.

ed4mon : We talked in another post about leaving the platic sticky thing on the phone.

It was said, that it will in some way ruin the screen,..I guess its because it "sticks" to the display.

Just a bit of advice
