You will be able to purchase the P800 online anywhere without any problems

Although, how can you compare the T68 vs. the P800?
There’s no competition that the P800 is better in features because it’s a PDA Phone However, I just don’t know, it would seem so retarded talking through that
I want to actually see pictures of people using this phone before I buy it.


@MJR, yahoo shopping has a list of online stores selling the T68i for a very good price. They are more reliable than E-Bay, plus you get warranty, the ability to return your phone, and some even offer insurance.

I just read this on http://di.se (a swedish financial magazine).

This is just a clip at the end of the article that is about phone with cameras.
In Swedish:

"Geab kommer att ta drygt 7.000 kronor för en Nokia
7650 utan abonnemang, detsamma gäller för Sony
Ericssons P800. En T68i kostar 6.599 kronor i Geabs
butiker. Den som vill ha kameran får punga ut med
ytterligare 1.499 kronor."

What it says is that a swedish phoneshop will be selling Nokia 7650 and SonyEricsson P800 for around 7000SEK that is somewhere around 700euro.
Not as expensive as I thought it would be considering that Sony Ericsson T68i for the moment costs 6599SEK in the same phoneshop.

Yeah I know I´ll never buy another phone at Geab. They are more expensive and have crappy support.

The only reason I bought my T68 at Geab was that my father has a 20% discount at Geab

Hehehe good to hear - both that you dont intend to buy another at Geab and with the discount
I choosed them due to the fact that they were the only who had a T68m (gold) available!

But I learned from my mistakes!! And I hopes you all do the same!!

Hey, I'm trying to get a T68i on eBay. Do any of you have any strategies? For example, waiting until the last minute for your first bid, etc. Anything will help. Thanks!

Hey, I just bought a T68i from www.oneworldgift.com for $433.95 USD. There was no sales tax and the UPS ground shipping cost was $17.95, so it came out to a grand total of $451.90.

I was just getting a little bit frustrated with how the whole eBay thing worked, with reserve prices, etc.

Anyway, the purpose of this post, aside from telling you about my purchase, was to inquire on what accessories everyone likes for the T68i. The keyboard, the camera, what is YOUR favorite T68i accessory that you would consider a MUST-HAVE?

I bought the keyboard from oneworldgift, it's a must if you like to SMS people. It beats typing it on the phone.

@mrNoodles

Where did you buy you MCA-20? And how much does it cost?

In the article about cameras and mobile phones on http://di.se they mentioned that the camera costs 1499SEK at Geab? I thought it was much more expensive than that.
