What does grey unit mean?
Pardon my ignorance.

Grey units pertain to units not purchased from authorized dealers and therefore are not covered by warranty.
They also pertain to units which were not released or specific to the local market (like the t68mc and t68ie with special software packs) and therefore not covered in the provisions of the international warranty.
It would be interesting to note that Sony Ericsson service points in the Philippines ARE NOT BOUND to upgrade mc or ie units. The service extended to these units have been discouraged (to protect SE pricing policy) but tolerated whenever possible.
GM could probably shed more light on this. My reference would be the provisions of the international warranty which comes with every purchase.

mc and ie units are meant for the chinese market and not the philippines, thus service points here are not allowed/not capable of upgrading such. if you reverse the situation, you bought a T68m unit and you reside in china, taiwan, or hongkong; do you think your unit can be upgraded?
