Hi,

When I make longer phonecalls (40 minutes etc), it sometimes happens that the voice of the other person suddenly gets distorted or garbled. You can almost not hear what the other guy is saying, but he will hear you perfectly. I usually end the call and call again --- problem gone.

I have noticed this problem with both my T68 and T68i, but never with any previous cellphones.

Anyone else who has had this problem?

Well you see, the sneaky thing is that it doesn't happen every time you make a long call. Not even every third or fifth "long-call". But once in a while (maybe in 5% of the "long-calls"), the garbling starts.

And it happened to both my T68m and my new T68i (which is not an upgraded T68m), so either I am extremely unlucky or this is a pretty basic problem.

yes, such happened to me. twice if i remember correctly. twice since january. but yah, i cant figure out what causes it... one time, the moment the other party answered, it was already garbled... so i just dropped the call and redialed, and it was ok again...

ejasim is right, too much time on the mobile phone is dangerous to your health. read the SAR disclosure sheet of your phone.

if you talk on the mobile phone for 30-60 minutes long, like i do sometimes, use a handsfree or a headset, that way the radiation isnt directed towards your head since the phone is away from you.

I have Telia, so I don't think it is operator related.

I almost always use handsfree --- simply because it is much more convenient to use for long conversations rather than holding up my hand against the head for so long. It also decreases radiation. However:

I heard a talk on medical effects of mobile talking. It was a research guy at Ericsson that held the talk. I was really suspicious at first, since Ericsson has so much to loose if it turned out that mobile phones were dangerous. But he convinced me not to be afraid of radiation. For instance, the only effect that has been concluded to be harmful is the heating of the tissues in the head --- it is simply not good that the head warms up --- but this heating is controlled by the SAR values and kept at non-dangerous levels. Science in this field has long been trying to find if there is any _other_ harmful effect than heating, but so far nobody has found that. A few times, a report has popped up with some claimed non-thermal (non-warming) harmful effect, but these experiments have never been possible to reproduce, which is very important in science.

I don't say that mobile phones are harmless --- nobody can know that for sure --- but at least there is no scientific foundation for saying that they _are_ dangerous.

So I'll keep talking!
