This choice is something very important for us ,greek users,because it allows us to choose whether or not we want to use unicode encoding or not in composing sms.With the old software we were forced to write with greek T9 and because of the unicode ,we were able to use only 70 characters and not 160 in one sms.Therefore we should get charged for double sms if we wanted to write,lets say 150 characters.now,by choosing national characters we can write with greek T9 160 characters as all the other countries.(for example english).

I find it very narrow-minded by the persons who invented the
character sets that they did not foresee that the computer systems may be used in other countries and languages than US english, and the same goes with those who invented all the internet protocols. It is still very unlikely that an email reaches its destination if the address contains one or more national characters. In sweden, we have åäö, which are not a and o with some kind of accent, they are both pronounced and used differently. Still people that have these characters in their names are forced to deliberately misspell them if they want to use them as parts of the email address.
I can imagine that people from greece or people using the chyrillic alphabet experience this problem even more though. Not to mention all asian alphabets... |

How about somebody overseas wants you to send an e-mail if the caracters are not on his keyboard how international is your e-mail addres then!!!!!!!!! The caracters in an e-mail addres are supposed to be typed easily for everybody. |

The version that has fixed this is R2B025 it's the latest software
for  T68i and some ppl have gotten it installed to their T68m's
too the rest with T68m will have to wait for week 22 to get it.
(Or find a service point that can do it now)

I don't get how this works... I set it off, and still, sometimes some of the words are made from accented characters (spanish) like á é í...
Why in hell? For example, sometimes I get
Mañana (tomorrow)
Manana
I'd like to ALWAYS get 'Manana' without 'ñ' as to increase the SMS limit... what I'm overlooking here? Or might it be that it doesn't work in my phone?
Thanks.
