Some products is just so cool that you have to buy them, the t68 is one of them. And its good for my ericsson stocks as well!;-) I'm a student which likes to spend my money at expensive crap, so I guess I'm more like stupid than rich. I prefer to buy nice cloths instead of gadgets though, maybe because my parents sponsors me when I buy cloths, thats good cause then I can spend my own money at crap and parties!:-]

A lot of you guys know what I do for a living,..and no, you dont "necessarily" get rich, just because the businesscard says ; "Designer"....the tax is far to high for that here in DK

I dont buy phones on contracts, and I never have done so.
I've had the same operator for many years, so I could actually renew my account every time I got a new phone.

Guess I'm just very much into mobilephones, gadgets and so on
I usually do sell my old phone, whenever buying a new. But right now, I still have my T68m,..might just keep it as a spare-phone.

I'm not rich. Just that someone in the family is in Handphone Business. Change handphone anytime when i get bored with it.
My wife is even worst. She seems to change her Handphone 2 weeks interval.

I love changing phones!

This time, the shop agreed to take back my T39 because I had a lot of trouble with it. I even "made" som money on this, as the shop had to give me the "todays" price of the phone, which was 500NOK more then I paid.

Theft also enebles people to buy new phones and for those who have unlimited insurance (or as Chris Rock calls it "Incaseshithappens") like me, it does not matter what happend to the phone. If it's broke, you get a new one! (I do not gamble with this and have only used it once and this was a "real" case....)

So the best thing is to have a "incaseshithappens".....

That was actually a bit like the answers I suspected.
I sold my old GF768 to my sister when I bought my T28, but I didn't get that much money for it.

And I know there are a lot of people know someone who can help them get cheaper phones.

I guess there are many ways...

But for my T68:
"Yes, it's true: I'm happy to be stuck with you" (old song)

basically to summarize, most of us aren't rich and some of us are students and do not have a steady salary.. but this fone just satisfies all the necessary criterias, the design is great and it actually feels great to hold it! (well it fits nicely in my hand) .. so it's worth payin a bit for a new gadget (or in my case) for a fone which I plan to keep for quite a while!

I have to say Motorola menu sucks!

According to a newsclip today on Mobil.se is the T68 just too expensive in Norway, so only companies are buying it not, private persons.

Is it so? some answers from all ye Norwegians on the site please

I'm lucky. My boyf paid my phone and he's paying my bills too. I only have to keep it under a certain limit.
