What a shame though, how nice would that be if we could get mophun on the T68's. They are the same hardware the T300 and t68, it would be really cool of SE to do that. Well you never know to keep the loyalist SE fans happy they might just do that, sonsidering how long it will be before we have a true T68 replacment. They might do it just to keep us happy till then.

It is possible to have mophun on the T68, I've seen it. It was before the release of T300, and done in order to test mophun games on "real" hardware. Probably this was done by SE themselfs and provided to selected developers.

Yep, there are some T68 test devices with Mophun on them. But, they are only for testing, no official release is planned. I don't think there will ever be any Mophun/Java upgrade for T68. SE needs to start making more money, and the only way they can make more money is by selling NEW devices, not by upgrading old ones.

Well I agree that there will probably not be a Mophun update for the T68, becasue SE needs to sell new phones to make money.
HW wise I don't think there is any problems implementing Mophun on the T68. Maybe SE could release a software upgrade with Mophun that people could pay for, if they wanted Mophun. That would be one way to generate some money... just a thought

Not a bad idea but the handling (how to get the money to SE from all over the world) from the money will probably costs so much that a upgrade would not be interesting.

First the bottom line: Mophun Engine works on T68. But SE will never release it for that phone.
Reasons are not to bother customers
but
a) SE has to pay royalties for each phone which includes the Mophun engine. So they cannot just upgrade any phone already on the market.
b) You would loose much space in the memory of your phone. So a whole bunch of existing functions in the T68i would've to be skipped.. And who could decide which functions had to go and which not?
c) several other reasons..
cheers,

Interesting to see replys to this thread saying 'NO and NEVER' and 'NO U CAN'T USE JAVA ON A T68'
I asked Sony Ericsson whether there were plans for a Java upgrade to the T68i and their Technical department replied 'At this time we have not decided on a java upgrade for the t68i. We are in constant negotiation with sun microsystems and will keep clients informed of any new developments'
This seems more promising than 'NO and NEVER' and 'NO U CAN'T USE JAVA ON A T68'. Did the people who posted these replies actually ask SE? Seems odd that SE 'have not decided' and that they are in 'constant negotiation' if its not technically possible on a T68i!
Here's hoping...

I knew it was possible, I just wasn't sure if they would do it. Its nice to hear they are considering it though.
