Just rewceived my new 'Gold' T68 today. It's built 02W10 (Malaysian) so it was made last week. SW is R2B013.

It's not pretty.

I think SE have tried to make it look good/better than the original Gold phone and have truly stuffed it up.

Here are the colours they have now:

- Gold around the screen and joystick and over the top of the phone
- Orange around the keys and a bit down the sides and bottom
- A pearly silver from the side and bottom to the black battery.

It looks strange, nothing like the ads.

It looks like a Sony-ified T68. If you look at a T68i, (http://www.t68.info/index.php?file=pictures), a pattern emerges.

Where the T68i has blue, the T68 is Gold.
Where the T68i is Grey/Silver, the T68 is orange on the front bits and pearly silver on the side.

I'll take photos of the phone tonight. Where should I put them?
