Have just set up my phone for MMS and made some MMS's for fun (but nobody to send them to) and it's much better then I imagined. WAAAAAY better then sms. Now it's not fun not being able to send it to anyone, but who cares? The only consolation is that you have the abillity to "preview" them before you send them so you get a pretty good ide how they work. It's much better watching MMS on the little screen then on the MMS composer from SE, thats for sure.

It's a bit complicated (not for us...) but it's going to take some time before John Doe's going to get the hang of it, but it's easy enough.

The only BAD thing with MMS is that nobody else has a MMS phone. It basically sucks paying 5000NOK for a phone you can't use. Ericsson called people who first start using new technology for "First Movers" and I guess I'm one of them. But it's sucks being first: you pay more then the "bulk" users, can't use it and you have to wait for god knows how many months before MMS is "common". IT SUCK's, BUT IT'S KINDA NEAT....

What can I say, the T68i is THE best phone I have ever laid my hands on.

Can't WAIT for the Comunicam..............

Just got the communican (MCA-20), and it is 10,000% better than the first one, especially on the T68i!

You can store the pics in the cam, copy them to the phone, you have four different sizes, you can view all your pics and save them as backgrounds, you can take someone's pic and then make it so when that person calls, you see their pic. YOu can use the screen as viewfinder, the camera is pointing the correct way, It's really beautiful and looks great with the i!!!!!


MMS is really cool, I think the birthday one rules!! hihi! But I don't think I could make one...

If ericsson would release the upgrade for the T68 than we would have many more MMS enabled phones...

@andre: Correct, but only people in Norway and maybe two other countries could actually do something with them.....

Telesaint: It's so damn expensive, I'm not going to send a lot of MMS' when I get the new software. I'll wait for the prices to drop.

I saw a phone company with good feedback selling the T68i and the new communicam together for just under £500 on eBay so its out in the UK.
