Well, I first saw it on the net after the Cebit show in March 2001. I was mainly interested in what business phone Nokia would be offering. I was using a 6210 and when all Nokia really had to offer was the 6310 I had a little look around.
On the Ericsson stand was the T68 and from the pictures it blew everything else out of the water. Size, weight colour display and features. Nokia's offerings didn't stand a chance.
A friend of mine got deliveries of T68 in his phone shop in Oct 2001 and told me to forget all other phones, take a day off work and come and see this beauty. I did and instantly bought one. Haven't regretted it since. |

I had been waiting for a triple band phone with an internal antenna. Nokia did not deliver, Ericsson did. Now the T68 calendar, getting my email via GPRS, and color screen have changed my concept about cell phones. It will be a lot harder for Nokia to win me back than it was for me to switch from Nokia to T68. A note to Nokia: very few people may really need the triple band (business, academics) but they travel a lot and meet people a lot. |

I didn't know that Sony had teamed up with Ericsson until I got the phone home.
I remember someone said to me "have you seen the new Ericsson colour screen phone" I said no and when looking for it.
I found it in a Vodafone shop, I had a play around with it in the shop and thought that this is the phone I'm going to get.

I saw it first in a TV commercial and then of course on internet. I had some problems with my Nokia 8210 and thought that it was good time to change the handset. So, I walked in a store, I saw both  T68 and Nokia 8310. Of course, as you can understand, Nokia got no chance at all compared to .
The fact that Sony and Ericsson joined their forces for the cellular market didn't affect my decision at all. Cause it is a strategic alliance not anything else. Sony wants to enter the Europan market, they have the money, but not the right product to do so. Ericsson is an established European company they have the right product & technology, but of course not the Sony's money and size . So, the joint was a necessity. Eventually will become the No1 player in cellular market!

I bought T68 'coz I wanted to get rid of my Samsung-A-200, and this was the only good device in the market along with Nokia 8310.
I finally decided that I will take T68 coz 8310 is too common here in Dubai. But eventually, I figured out that buying T68 was indeed a very good decision, coz I can have lots on question about it answered on the net on forums like this and have its firmware upgraded at the service centre for free
I'm looking forward to the phone whose pics are being posted everywhere, which is made by and which has a color screen similar to Nok7650. Does anyone know the model number or any specs of this new phone? |

EWAP : the silvermetallic is a prototype, and who knows,..it might go into production  And I do believe that the colorscreen has 65.000+ colors, at least, that what I've read. Dont know if its true ?
-------------------------------
I saw the T-68 at Cebit the first time too.
Loved it from the beginning.
It has the things I look for in a phone :
Features-high tech.
Design-stylish and the right "feel".
Size-weight.
Usability
At that time I had a Nokia 6210, and I wanted a new one.
Actually got the T-39 in july 2001. I knew that when the T-68 came, I would exchange my T-39.
So as soon as the T-68 hit Denmark, I got it.
And we lived happily ever after,..hehe

i sell mobiles at the link (UK) and i got the 8310 when it came out here. went through a couple of phones (had really shit software that crash every 5 mins, and really annoying not being able to listen to radio indoors). as soon as t68 came out (about 6 weeks later) there was no comparison so swapped them over. fell in love with the t68 straight away and will never touch nokia again! |
