Are you happy with your T68 ? Do you think that you should wait for other colour mobile to come out?

My opinion is that T68 is a great phone but I was expecting the quality of the screen to be better.

Also they told me from Ericsson that after we upgrade the phone to R2B there will be a big battery drop!!!!! from about 300hours it will drop to 200hours !!!! That was not good news.

What I think is that we are going to be jealous when other colour mobiles will come out....

Finally I am very disapointed because NOKIA 8850 was able to keep its price HIGH until today.....for WHAT!!!!!! the stupid BLUE leds..... T68 is 3 months old and it is already cheaper.....

I am, and will be. You see the T68 has a sound design. Given the right software, it can do wonders, not to mention the expandability. I wouldn't be surprised to see a 128MB T68 (of course the memory is connected like the MP3 add-on) in the future. A video camera attachment, not the still camera like the Communicam, will facilitate video conferencing.

Just a few thoughts.

If I will find a phone which is better than T68, then I will sell T68 and buy that phone....but I dont expect any better phone(than T68 ) to come out anytime soon...

The T68 rocks! There's no phone like it, and there won't be for quite some time.
There's no way the battery is going to drop to 200 hours. It'll be the same as it is today.

Not so soon, I dont see any phone that will be better in all aspects than E-T68. But wait till Motorola V70 comes out. It was recently launched in Hong Kong. I still think E-T68 is better than this.

Baterry is going to drop to 200 hours...

It will say 390 290hours ...... but because of the screen saver and the picture phonebook the battery will lose capacity dramaticaly fast.... If you don't use these features the battery will stay the same

V70 IS A GADGET PHONE, GREAT DESIGN BUT AS FAR AS SCREEN SIZE, BATTERY LIFE AND MENU....KIND OF POOR

I RATE IT AS A 6,5
THE T68 AS A 7,5
THE NOKIA 7650 AS AN 9

A LITTLE HEAVIER(CAMERA BUILT-IN) BUT TWICE THE SCREEN SIZE, BETTER COLOUR, BETTER BATTERY, BETTER MENU, WAY BETTER CAMERA

It's the future, because of compability, interface and ease of use....In a way T68 was the first to start the movement with colour and cam, Nokia takes it 2 steps further with 7650.....It's a better machina altogether....i owned both so I know what i'm saying....but T68 is ok too

I work for the biggest German operator, we always get samples months before sale/release, to test network compatibility, anomalies and marketability.....In this case we got 150 nokia's and I took 3 of them to play around....Great phone! but the t68 is ok too

T68 is a mobile phone - 7650 is a communicator! Manufacturers dont make phones heavier than 140g unless its a PDA/communicator phone or a cheap pile of rubbish (3330)

You can compare T68 with 7650, but they do not belong in the same category of device type!

Yes the 7650 may be better in most cases, but its not intended to be a mobile phone or at least consumers will not see it that way
