Proberly only the firmwares that are discontinued, not the acctual phones. As said before, the phones sales are high.

I dont think that

would keep phones in production just because they are selling well. I know it does seem they should keep them going but they have replaced them now with the K700. If they kept making phones because they sell well then we might still have the T28. Manufacturers cant afford to produce more than a couple of handset aimed at the same market, production costs are loer if they make one handset aimed at one market.

actually its not thats strange. The new phones like the K700 (replaced the t610 and t630) and lower budget phones like f500 and s500 are selling well.

Yes, they have replcement (K700, K500), but they don't have any clam shell out yet!
And the phones are still quite new on lower selling markets like South America etc.
Remember how long they hold on to T68i!

@miss uk u might be right, hope t630 will last long with the fw upgrade - however no problem with the actual - and the usually upgrade with the latest will give the same result and long usage as at /// fones the re-grade with latest fw.

the t610 has had its fair share of the limelight. it feels a little dated relative to the new phones coming out. the z600 and t630 are more 'fresher' looking though.
but, is there a timeframe as to when they will actually stop manufacturing it?

Well I don't think that the K700 will replace the T610/630 as intended, because ppl are still buying those. Others are already unloading their K700's by the boatload. The T610/630 is a mature model and a solid perfomer, while the K700 has been plagued by bugs since its inception. With a lot new models are coming out until X-mas the K700 has lots of competition. I just got my T630 yesterday. Good phones sell well and keep selling, while less good phones might sell well in the beginning, but then drop off the charts. You can still buy the T39 and the T68 after all those years, but will you be able to buy a K700 in two years? I doubt it. My new T630 says it was mfg. this year in August in China. So they are still mfg. that phone so far.
