Have you ever noticed that, even if you have your keylock active, you can look at new messages and call the answer phone if someone has left a new message!

Several times I have locked my phone and a while later removed it from my pocket to find that it has been connected to my voice mail for about 30 minutes!! Lucky I have got free calls to voice then really.

Although I suppose it is helpful to not have to unlock the keypad to view a message it means that your keypad is only really locked until you receive a message.

Anyone else experienced this

For you guys with the t68s - try leaving an answer phone message from on your phone from another phone while your t68's keylock is on. You will be able to press yes when it says 'check new message' or what ever it says.

I know the sms messages don't unlock the t68 but you can read them while the P800 is locked - try it.

My P800:
When keylocked, SMS can be read if you don't press anything before "1" to view it - missed calls cannot be viewed when keylocked

My T68i:
When keylocked, SMS cannot be read
Missed calls cannot be viewed

Both phones:
An incoming call releases keylock on the 'Answer' and 'Reject' and 'Mute' buttons only - this is only logical and more of a good thing than a bad thing I think
