I'm sure Eve is not lying to me, as it is not me who called them yesterday, IT IS THEM who called me as I left my mobile number with them a couple of weeks ago to call me if there are any news.
Anyway, I trust and believe her as she wouldn't have called me in the very first place if she is unsure about it right? Well, I will be getting ready and will call her again on Tue to confirm before I personally go down there.
Cheers Everyone

Nope! Neither I said she was lying. It is only happen that she is not around and we cannot get the confirmation from her how or where she got the news on the confirmed date. However, if you can get more advance news than me, I will be much happier as I am also waiting for the upgrading.

the main thing they are testing is the MMS feature and it really need network to support it so it can run perfectly
Dairin, your arguement doesn't make sense. Why does the network need to be tested to support this software? Isn't a phone with the EXACT SAME SOFTWARE already running on those networks, namely the T68i.
What would make more sense is they are training the SESC staff on the upgrade to make sure they don't end up with a lot of screwed up phones after the upgrade, you can screw the phone up with just an ordinary upgrade, and this is a "conversion", so I'm sure more can go wrong. They don't want to face the cost of replacing those badly flashed phones.
This "testing MMS for the networks" is Bull, otherwise why is the T68i on the market already MMS ready?

JasonDeFaoite-> sorry if i made the mistake(based on ur reply) but from what i see they really need to test network as this MMS thing is very new to singapore's network
even M1 giving a free MMS trial to 200 lucky t68i user, they also want to see how their network can cope with the demand when MMS will as popular as SMS now
U have the point that maybe SE is giving a training for the staff as this is not an ordinary software upgrade but it is a conversion -> i agree fully on this statement
no hard feeling but i accept all feedback from you fellow t68 user

Correct me if I am wrong JasonDeFaoite. Though what you said it is absolutely correct, they have this MMS for T68i user to test run why do they need to test the sw since it is the same as T68i. From my personal view of point is this is an upgraded sw it is not originally designed for T68. And now especially to upgrade to MMS for T68 it has to eliminate everything from T68 sw and in put the T68i sw. It is just like a transplant of organs it may anytime goes wrong. So who will be the want to be blamed. Thats why they are very careful to ensure everything is in order than they dare to release the sw. Frankly I am not tecnical inclined this is what I can think for as a lay man terms. Beside I also fully agreed with you that the SE people do not want to take the blame if anything goes wrong on the phone. Partly I also think they want to have the feed back from europe site which had already done the upgrading. That is why it had been delayed for such a long period. Or else to test the sw should not have take such a long time.

Yeap! I fully support dairin message. This is a discussion forum. Somtimes we may be wrong on what we are thinking. We learn from one to another. We should not have hard feelings towards other posters if they point out our mistake. After all we can learn through mistake made.

Hi dairin/tonyG
I am not saying there is no testing required, what I am saying is that the excuse of need to test the MMS portion of it for network compatibility is in my humble opinion just pure delaying tactics on SE's behalf.
Now MMS may need testing ... it is new and many things can go wrong ... but why only the T68m "converted" phone needs this testing with the networks and not the T68i??
As Tony said, many things can go wrong, but that is with the upgrade or conversion itself. You screw up a flash of the phone memory, it is not as easy as just reflashing it. SE do not want 100's of T68s coming back to them dead (a friend of mine just had his T39 killed by the Jurong Serivce centre during an upgrade ... took 3 days but got a new phone).
I would be very very surprised to see a bug "detected" in all this supposed testing and it fixed and the f/w recompiled and released, all in the space of 1 week of it being available from EMMA2.
Anyways, whatever the reason ... i think we all wish SE would just hurry the f**k up
