I read about a lot of people complaining about alternative SMS tones for the Ericsson's. I don't know about the other models, but the T65 has the option to assign a ringing tone to a member in the phonebook. Whenever I receive a SMS from someone with a personalized ringing tone asigned to their name...that particular tone is used and not one of the standard ones.

I had my phone upgraded yesterday with the newest firmware (ver. R6A006) and I still have the option of assigning different ringing tones to individual entries in my phonebook...and that ringing tone is used when that particuliar person sends me a SMS. I guess it's not a bug then, but a feature. Sorry to the T68 chaps out there...seems the T65 beats ya there.

Anyone knows if it will be a future feature on the T300?

The T65 shows the picture assigned to your contacts too! By the way, did you notice that on the T68 it's not possible to set a task/appointment as private/public?! I have to use my T39 or T65 to handle the calendar... That's not an improvement.

a) it does that on my t200 as well
b) I think it should not be this way - I want to know if someone is calling me or leaving a message. Thats more important for me than knowing the sender imediately
c) blue65: didn you upgrade your phone...?

Yep...I did upgrade my phone from R4B, then to R5A010 and now it has R6A006 on it. Seems most of the bugs (the way I use my phone) is sorted out now.
