The T68 phone has TETRIS and three other games.
The T68m has 8 games, and none of it is TETRIS.
The T68m games has the same games as T68i.
I want TETRIS on my phone.
The T68m has no TETRIS.
The T68 has TETRIS.
So, how do I degrade the software back to T68 from T68m?
T68 and T68m are still the same phone
but.... in earlier
firmware versions (in R2B013 Tetris was removed) Tetris was included... sure... you can update your phone with an earlier firmware version... just find a servicepoint that has it... which will be very difficult... cause they only have one version for T68m, and that is most likely R2D005 since the versions before R2B contained alot of bugs.

Why did they remove TETRIS? I think its the best game out of all of the other games combined.
Other services like Sprint, Verizon, and Boost have to pay $5/month just to download a game, which includes TETRIS. And their games auto-delete after a month.To get it back, you have to pay $5 again each month.
The T68 had it, but was removed when they upgraded to T68m and T68i. I think that its stupid for Sony to do so. I'd rather have TETRIS than 7 other less fun and cheap games.

Apparently it was some sort of copyright issue... Related to the huge number of units sold, they had to pay some royalty which proved to be very high and therefore took the Tetris game away. I am not sure, if you want to be, just use the "search" function of this forum, you might find the answer.
Anyway, the t68 "m" to "i" upgrade has so many new good features you will soon forget about Tetris. Although I agree with you that they should have left it on the phone. I guess it is just a financial matter.
If you hade the copyrights of a game like Tetris you wouldn't sign a contract with a manufacturer... You'd better create a java version of it and let everyone have it for 5 USD every couple of months... That would make huge money!!! Far more than including it in ONE BRAND...
So that might be the reason...
