I've taken From this article,

http://www.mobilmania.cz/Mobilnitelefony/Ar.asp?ARI=101843

that when the next upgrade is available that our T68's will have all the features of the T68i. the only main difference is the "Sony Ericsson" badge over the screen, oh and the new looking earpiece.!!!! take a look and tell me what you think!

Thanks,
B-man

I honestly prefer the 'Ericsson' badge with the actual earpiece. But i think u forgot the blue light illuminated keyboard with no T68 written down the phone.

Sorry, but apart from the badge, earpiece, blue keypad light, oh and they seemed to have canged the back as well - got rid of the rubber feel for a slick plasic, ( i like the rubber back!!! stops it slipping out of my hand!!!!!) it seems to be the same.
i don't think the T68i will have more memory, it's just been freed up from other places. instead of have memory allocated to certain thing (eg. phone book) they've now shared the memory so if the phonebook does not need it something else can use it. they also got rid of tetris, which from my understanding used alot of memory!

why do people assume that tetris takes up alot of memory!!!! I can guarentee you that it uses less than 'game'!! And is much more playable.
If we just make assumptions as to why ericsson removed something and accept it then whos gonna stop them removing some of the other best features of the phone!!
My girlfriend got her phone a day or two ago but we had to check the firmware version first because if it didn't have tetris she didn't want it!

Believe me tetris will definately be the game that buyers will want and am actually going to e-mail ericsson now to ask if they would put a poll on their site to get actual figures from their users.

It's only a game!!! I didn't buy the phone to play games! in fact i didn't even know what games were on it before i bought it. if you are buying a phone just because it has a certain game on it you should stop and think for a minuite - it's only a game, is it going to affect how works , looks , and is!! they got rid of it on the new models/Firmware for a reason, we might not know the reason, but that shuoldn't matter.

It may only be a game but what I am saying is that having a good game on the phone is really helpful especially when bored! I know its not a necessity but when the company has the option to put the game back then I think those who would like to get it back should ask!

AND WHY HAS THIS RUMOUR THAT TETRIS TAKES UP MEMORY STARTED!!!!! I KNOW THAT IT DOESN'T AND HAVE E-MAILED ERICSSON MYSELF FOR VERIFICATION OF THIS! to see my letter goto the "letter to ericsson... tetris" thread

Is flashing your phone the same as upgrading?

What I cant understand is, why you're sending this request about Tetris to Sonyericsson,..we're already doing a letter to them right now, with all the improvements/suggestions, that people would like.

Sonyericsson send me an email, they would like to see our suggestions.

Why didnt you just write it on the list ?

About Tetris,..it could have something to do with copyrights on this specific game.

Or simply that Sonyericsson dont want it on the phone, hehe.

Dont know, and dont care,..I never play games on the phone anyway
