Why don't you belive me? T68i was in my hands!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!You can buy it in Hungary in every GSM shops!!!!!!!!!!!!
I try to get some pictures but I can't go into a shop just to make a photo of the new phone.
And also in the Hungarian Ericsson Service Center they said that T68i is an existing new phone and T68m is not siutable to use all the new functions which T68i has just some of them.But who knows, we're not futuretellers!
I also bought a T68m a few weeks ago and after 2 weeks there was the new T68i which is better than T68m!!!!!!!!!
T68i EXISTS and its design is different.

agree... but it does exist somehow

searching for T68i at Google gives quite a long list of sites, mostly sites in Eastern Europe and Russia.
A swedish mobile related magazine had a news article about T68i in January, they had contacted a person at

, but he hadn't heard of T68i.
In the software MyPictures the text "...can be displayed at standby on phones T68 and T68i" can be read... this is a pic from it:
The article is found at

In case your right... why havenīt SonyEricsson introduce it, not even here in sweden they have?!?!
Or else they will introduce it at CeBIT but then you couldnīt have tried it already, that would be impossible...
sorry kid, canīt belive you, if you donīt have pictures-proofs?!
I agree to Npalamidis, Superluminova, mikaalto, dan47 and all the others here on Esato.com.
T68i could might be another version of a T68m but the only differences are that itīs fitted for another region (countries.. ex. Asia, US) but there isnīt any HW changes...
sorry pal!

In Hungary you can buy T68i in GSM shops which are not official Ericsson Service Centers. So this phone is not 'officially' released yet maybe that's the reason why you can't find anything about it in Ericsson's sites.

Hopefully this should clear all of this confusion up about the "T68i"
Ericsson T68i arrives thus that its new software!!
(25.01.2002)
After launching last October of T68 , Ericsson had announced that support MMS (Multi-media Message Service) was returned in the first months of 2002 because of the uselessness of the service in autumn 2001.
Ericsson confirms the fact that it would have been possible to return all T68, even very first, compatible MMS with a simple update of the software. Various specimens are already in the hands of companies proposing of services MMS for various European operators.
Here thus the arrival on the market of T68i. For "the old hand" owners of T68, do not make any you, the update will be available without any problem of software or hardware. The principal news functions is thus compatibility with the MMS, the possibility of traversing various images (JPEG, GIF and WBMP) present on the telephone, a inteface to listen to the new melodies considering technology MMS will combine the images with music (formats available iMelody, BeMelody and AMR) and finally the possibility of changing topic either by creating them, or by downloading them via Internet.
Nevertheless, the true revolution is the flexibility of the storage internal in order to manage space according to the use that did it mobile telephone. That comes down to saying, that currently on T68, there are various internal storages which are each one preset for a certain type of data. On T68i, these memories will be put together and could be used indépendemment of what one wishes to safeguard (e-mail, SMS, etc.). There will not be thus more limitation, i.e. one will be able to save, for example, more images in the e-mail place or SMS and vice versa.
With through the use of use of Communicam, it will be possible to make photographs and to send them via MMS or quite simply to safeguard them. Moreover, with this update, one will be able to transmit via IrDA, Bluetooth, SMS or MMS, other data, such as for example of the vocal recordings. Lastly, this version will support the XHTML in its version BASIC which will allow navigation on several Web site.
This version of T68i, as its software (R1B) will be available to mid-March 2002.

You're right it isn' Ericsson it's SonyEricsson!
When the release it officially and it turns out that this is an existing phone what will you say, I'm sorry? this is not enough for me because I'm not a lier. I really held T68i in my hands.
I copy something for you from another topic of Estato. It was written by a guy who works for Ericsson. He couldn't stand any more that we were arguing about T68m and T68i
Believe it or not the T68i exists (It's not rumour, because I tried it for some hours:).
Why can you buy it in Hungary? It's not final, arrived in a white box labelled NOT FOR COMMERCIAL USE or sg like that. So I think it's in beta stage. The phone itself is not a good looking one, light silver color, with metallic blue top, with no metal-like Yes/No buttons, and a white painted! sony-ericsson text. It's not so elegant like T68m, and the back of the phone is hard coated. It has 56 background images, and you can delete them (one of my friends tried a phone with just 12 backgrounds, so I think it's really a beta), it has 4 predefined styles like summer, autumn, ..., but you can download new ones instead. The games were not so many like Dark said, because the solitaire like games were in the main game menu, there was Naval, but no GAME etc, had MMS ofcourse, and all memory was counted together, there was ~540k of ram, which I could use for backgrounds, themes, etc. The switch on/off logo was the green sonyericsson one, not earth. Finally my conclusion was the software is really good (except for the long waitings with a Windows style hour-glass), but I didn't like the cheap young-looking hardware design. And one more thing for the beta thing: the sw version was r1a.
So I'm not the only one who tried T68i!

My eyes doesnīt lie...
I need picture-proofs...
SonyEricsson wouldnīt send out a BETA-version that never anyone has heard about to a totally unknown store in hungary... I think they would "hire" test-people and other things...
But, before I can belive you, I need pictures like all the others here on Esato.com!!

totally agree with kallingen... those sites I have been around to where it is written about T68i there is either no pic at all, or a pic on a T68m....
found a Russian site where they had info on both T68 and T68i, the thing was that the info on theese two was the same, and the picture on the two pages was on a T68m with golden cover.
