I agree with JH
The T68 is a business phone and not a kiddie phone. I use the SMS pretty frequently, ten to twelve messages a day; U.S. is not as sms crazy as Europe, at least not yet due to too many networks, and it works great with the latest upgrade. I have a beta version of the MMS version of the software and SMS is very quick.
The bottom line, a cell phone is like a watch, its all about tastes and preferences. SOme people will pay for a Rolex for mediocre timekeeping while other will purchase a Swatch for swiss accuracy. It comes down to personal preference and that's all.
Once problem I think everyone is having with the T68 is that Ericsson launched the phone with SW that was not perfect and we are all pointing out its defects, but overall the phone is great and does its job and the perk is that it turns heads. Especially in the U.S. where the phone has not been release yet.

JH, i think u might make a mistake there, the new model from Siemens is called LOOX instead of SOOX. and Pocket LOOX is a Pocket PC, it has no phone functionality!
and i totally agreed that teh 7650 is damn heavy and big if it is use solely as a phone. not bad for a PDA+phone thought... espcially the camera thing!
since there is many new phone coming out now with BT and colour screen, out choice certainly are more and T68, in my opinion is still the best looking around!
dont u guys agree?

I will not deny that the 7650 is cool looking, and the fact that it has a camera is cool, however Nokia once again dissapoints with a dual mode phone. Nokia is fully aware that the US is in the process of converting to GSM, SO WHY THE HELL WOULDN'T THEY MAKE THE PHONE TRIBAND.
I forsee that the alliance between Sony and Ericsson will take market share away from Nokia, not to mention Ericsson's president, who wants Ericsson to get as much market share as possible.
Nokia keeps on producing phones that are all on the same platform and are getting old looking.
WHen was the last time you asked for Nokia phone and they told you that it was out of stock because of sales volumes.

I for one would not consider a phone that is not triband, I used to have only nokia phones then when to motorola ti250 (Only brought it because it was triband) now to a t68. I would have not brought a t68 if it was dual band depite it being the best phone out there.
I am sure than i am not the only one that thinks this way, Nokia will lose more and more people unless they start going to triband.

Re : Orka
You say that the T9 on T68 is among the best you have tried. Which phones do you compare with? The only slower might be another Ericsson phone. All the Nokias I have tried was a LOT faster than T68. They are also faster than T68 between menus.
About the battery capacity I don't know how good the 7650 will be in use(I know the specs ,but that is not the same).I just think that the capacity on T68 does not live up to the specs. My old 7110 and 6110 (2 and 4 years) are still as good as the T68 is now.

I don't like the design!!!! It's like a brick!!!!! It looks a little bit taller than 8210 but it's wider and HELL too much thicker....because of the built in camera. It could be cooler if NOKIA had a version of 7650 without the camera!!! It could be less thick and cheaper!!!!!

I would go for the T68.As a former Nokia user i'd think the will have reliability
problems on this model too aspecially on the first releases i dont think ericsson has te same kind of troubles.
