In my right hand I have my old T68m which have treated me nice all the time. Some problems has there been, but this has been firmware related. The joystick and volume knob is still firm, but the glass has a few small scratches, but a bright and nice display. Hardware revision R1A, firmware R2D005 and made in Sweden

In my left hand I have a brand new T68m which is hardware revision R3A, firmware R2B013 and made in China. This one the joystick feels slightly more firm, but the display is kind of darker (more blue) than my old one.

I guess I'll keep my old one, but it is kind of tempting with a newer hardware revision and a non-scratched display (well, thats a matter of time).

Playing around with the phones before I posted this, the display seems to display pictures better (more color details), and the joystick seems more accurate.

Now, I feel like keeping the new one

Any thoughts?

Drop both of them from a five story building. Keep whichever one that survives the fall.

Clever boy Maltesh to the resue again!!

If you are gonna drop them from a 5 storey building, let me know and Ill catch them for ya!! ..

Anyone wanna buy a T68.. I will have 2 to sell soon

Id sell one of them and then upgrade the other one, either way, upgrade the older one anyway so its upto date with the new one and will poss have the MMS upgrade too. That way youll be happy with the s/w u have but you wont have the nice new (scratch free) screen and the firmer joystick.. thats if u keep the old one.

Good Luck

I'm taking DREWMARKs advice and keeping the new one. The old one I return to where I work, so we have one in spare there. There is nothing economical in this for me.

The one thing I was conserned about, I know my existing phone. I've had it since dec./jan., and no problems with buttons/joystick. The new one made in china, I'm conserned gonna break. Would be my typical luck

Anyway, I'm giving it a shot. Gonna upgrade it from R2B013 to R2D005 (or newer if exists) this or next week.

BTW: No, my old one will not be there for me if the new one breaks. The one I return will go out to one of my colleague the same second I return it.

My advice was the best... but what a shame you didn't take my advice. As bazzyboy.. he knows Im a genius!

By the way anyone tried hacking the WAP mobile. I got to hack one thing. I can listen to other peoples conversation on my mobile by turning on my bluetooth and dialling a number. Of course they have to be 10 ft range.. but the problem is I can't chose which number I want to listen to. Anyway I will figure it out soon.

Don't you guys talk when I am near unless u don't mind me listening to your private conversation.. hehe
