Somebody please put me out of my misery, when you're typing in your text message and need an apostophe (like in can't)or something similar (e-mail)that divides up a word do you have to actually hit the hash key then the zero five times or can you get it to put it in automatically? Other T9 phones do it, am I missing something?

Sorry mate ! I think we are all in the same case ! I find that is the most annoying problem of our superb T68... and I don't understand why the Ericsson engineers are not able to correct that !!! BTW, I'll probably return by Siemens as soon as they make a color screen phone... because they are much faster, they know how to do an apostrophe with the T9 (even in french...) and, on my point of view, they are more advanced in term of features... (integrated MP3... 1000 contacts with more fields... etc..)

Gidday Rolud, I know what you mean, I've always been a bit of a Siemens fan, I too will wait and see what their colour offering is, thanks for the reply.

How about trying to insert the word by manually write it in enter new word or whatever it is called in english now. Then it will be inserted into the T9 engine.. am i right ?

Ok I tried that, but you don't get the "word added to dictionary" message and when you try to use it as one of the options it's not there, good idea though. Looks like we're stuck with it, it even says so on the Sony Ericsson website, under tips and trick for the T68.
