Nokia 7650 and SE T68i are not in the same class. You must compare 7650 with P800.
7650 is a PDA-phone with an internal camera while T68 is a full-featured PDA-like phone.
If you want PDA features , internal camera and if weight and size are not your primary concerns , then buy a Nokia 7650 or wait for P800.
If you want a small , cool phone with all the features you can think in a phone then buy T68i , and a MCA-20 camera.
I would buy a T68i and a camera. Because it's easy to carry when I don't need to take pictures.
The other choice is to wait for P800.( If you really need the all features of a PDA and if carrying two devices is not a problem , any GPRS phone (T68 ) and a Palm Vx will be the best choice.)

In software version R2B025 the SMS T9 writing has become really fast! You will not complain about speed anymore!!

The Nokia 7650 is way too big I think. And I hear it will not be released until August!

It's like this:

Nokia 7650 vs. Sony Ericsson P800

Nokia 7210 vs. Sony Ericsson T68i

And maybe there will be: Nokia ?? vs. Sony Ericsson Z700!?
I'm just not a signature kind of guy..

look what i got from: http://www.ocworkbench.com/2002/samsung/t100/colorshoot.htm

Everything is positive so far but the T68i is not immune from other shortcomings. For instance, the interface is a tad confusing, at least to me. A friend of mine described it as intimidating! The lack of useful information in the manual often led to "trial and error' while exploring the options. Another issue that creeps up every single day is speed. Well, the response time on the T68i is an improvement over the original T68m but there is still a lag here and there especially in the area of SMS. At times, the phone will "hang" for no apparent reason (and white screen when playing Naval Fleet) and I believe that the software is still buggy.

is this true?

The guy that wrote that review must really hate the T68i because it is better

First time I used my T39 or T68i, I was not "confused". It’s quite simple to figure out the menu’s, unless you are a total moron and unable to read the simple text. As for "Hangs or bugs", I have never experienced one yet, and I haven’t even turned my phone off in weeks.
