use DRS-10 (according to the Product Support page of Ericsson, http://www.sonyericssonmobile.com/spg.jsp?template=PS1_1&B=ie&noredir=1&PID=9452&LM=SB_V&noredir=1, DRS-11 is not compatible with the T68)...

generally, those cables are RS-232... which is like a generic name...

it's like RS-232 is to car,
while DRS-10 is to Ferrari... d'you get it?

infrared is good to.
but it requires too much drivers and compatibility with your PC and your phone.

FIRSTLY DESPITE THE INFORMATION GIVEN TO ME FROM THIS BOARD.... a standard T28 data cable WILL work fine with the T68!

And to all of you the DRS-11 is meant to be the best one for the T68 because it has some extra features to do with using the phone as a modem or something? For a technical reason search the forums.

But like I said just buy a cheap and nasty T28 cable from the market and it'll do all your tones and pix fine.

Also that guy with the cars and ferrari's what the fu*k are you on about? RS-232 just describes the type of computer port you need, i.e. the standard 9 pin com port

I got 220L+ from http://www.expansys.com for £29 and it works pretty good for logos and ringtones.
I have only had it for a few hours and it is pretty easy to use.
I couldn't see the point splashing out for the USB version just for tranfering files of only 3 to 8k

As a reseller, I've checked with SonyEricsson support and the promised that the only differencies between DRS-10 and DRS-11 is the fact that DRS-11 support phone for the USA market. No other differencies should be there.

For logos us MyPictures.exe found at SonyEricssonmobile.com. I thing the new version will also be avalible to send ringtones. The best site on the net for this
is actually wap.sonyericssonmobile.com.
