if i get an upgrade at smartnet, knowing that it is an ericsson authorized service center....
wouldn't it void the warranty of Semicon since i let "other" people touch the software...?
just makin sure coz i'm considering going to smartnet rather than semicon in marcos highway....
thanks...

I just had my upgrade (R1C -> R2B) done yesterday. Boy, it took Semicon almost two hours this time.
Aside from the features that were already discussed in this post
http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=1525&forum=17&31 here are some that I see that were not discussed yet.
a) Font Consistency. This is the first thing I noticed. When the font is set to "small", "medium" or "large" the lists, the menus, everything follows the font settings now.
b) Better RF. In my judgement, the RF has improved. I now get two bars for what was zero or one, in a particular location.
c) GPRS is more sensitive, in relation to the above. Before I can't connect to GPRS if there's less than 3 bars. But now, I can connect and reliably use it even if signal is 1 bar. I can now surf, email, inside our bathroom.
d) GPRS is snappy. I'm not sure if a channel was added. T68 specs say 3 downstream and 1 upstream. If no channel was added, then it must have been optimized.
e) Scrolling on email and WAP is noticeably faster.
f) T9 input.. hah! No change. It still lags. But this is least important to me, personally.
g) I'm not sure if it's my eyes, but looks like there's a bit of improvement in color handling.
h) Tagalog was removed from the Menu language options! Was replaced by Bahasa Indonesia and Bahasa Malaysia.
I was dissapointed though that my HBH-15 was not upgraded. Because their upgrading machine cannot connect to SonyEricsson's server.
@gooms, check my post
http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?mode=viewtopic&topic=1441&forum=2&start=20 for the official statement from SonyEricsson about MMS in the Philippines. The information in on page 2 of the discussion.

does this mean that smartnet only has R1C? not even R2B?
