The T100 is a really nice phone. I was testing one for a few days. The screen is absolutly amazing!!! and the ring tones are great!
THe package comes with 2 batteries, and a battery charger, there is a standard and an extended battery. you will get at least 130hours standby out of the extended battery (depening on usage and network conditions). It is a little big, but once you flip it open and see that screen, it doesn't matter how big it is. As the others stated, it is completly featureless!! no IRDA, GPRS, etc... although it does have EMS!, but that is not great in itself!
THe T66 is also a nice phone, but it is tooo small, really looks like a toy. feature wise it is a bit better.
I have a T68, great phone, looks wise, and feature wise, but it is soooo slow!, jesus, if they could only make it "nokia speed"!!!. You see i also have a Nokia 8890. Again a great phone, a real head turner, even to this day. no features compared to the T68, but at least it is fast!

Anyway, if i had to buy eithre the T66 or the T100 tomorrow, i would go for the T100, purely because of that great screen, and it does not feel or look as much of a toy as the T66.
That is my opinion on the matter as a neutral consumer.

Thanks,

t66 & t100, no contest and should not be compared. just like comparing a 4x4 suv to a sedan. find something it's own size or specifications.

Yeah the T100 is a good looking phone with a fantastic screen - loads better than the T68m.. and yes i do LOVE my T68m. will surely bring out something to compete with the display of the T100 soon enough. the T100 is a nice phone, feels solid (had the chance to play with one in the shop a few weeks ago) and although the keys are a little tricky to press (seems to be buried deep into the casing) still looks nice.. looks pretty like the 'Beam me up scotty' thing on Star Trek!!! (Sorry all those trekkies who know what that thing is called )

Overall.. what would I go for?? Easy...

ID HAVE BOTH!!

I have the t68i and can't compare it to Nokia speed....

About the T100: It's a f*cking BEAUTIFUL screen and the ringtones are PERFECT, but that's it.... it's bigger than it looks on pictures, it doesn't even have Infra-Red, let alone bluetooth, GPRS, etc, etc....

It's definitely better than the T66, but I'd really prefer the T68 to it....

That's also one reason the T68 will stay at the top for a LONG, LONG time... even with the P800 and other phones.... it's a great price, with everything and more....

Let me tell you a few things about Samsung phones:

1) build quality and finish are superb, better than Ericssons
2) voice quality is excellent (you know how bad Ericssons sound)
3) software sux, reminders don't go off if you're not in idle mode, games don't have resume feature, SMS in composition is lost when a call comes in, etc, etc, you get the idea. It behaves like a DOS system, not multitasking, for this reason Ericssons are slow.
4) battery meter has poor resolution, 4 bars only, unlike Ericssons' that decrement by pixel
5) can't vibrate AND ring at the same time
6) can't vibrate on SMS

Choose t66 and t68 because the price of a t100 can buy both
