I found out that this hot cool phone will be available in the US sometime this month. For those in the US who already own the phone, where did you get it?
Any positive or negative comments on the phone? You are probably using VoiceStream as service provider, can you tell me a little bit about how iStream works.
Thanks much!

Got my T68 in Europe and it works great; although it took a while to figure out the ins and outs with Voicestream. The one down aspect of the the phone, is that when you select GPRS on all the time, there are a lot of missed calls, hopefully this will be corrected when the phone is launched in the US. How sure are you that VS will be carrying the phone and where did you hear this.
Thanks

Well, so far the largest GSM provider in the us is VS, so I think I can safely assume that VS is going to carry this phone.

I got my T68 on Ebay, and use Voicestream service.
Incidentally, VoiceStream says that ericsson phones are not able to access their IStream Wap page (though others work). I can access it just fine.
Do any of you VoiceStream users have problems accessing wap.myvoicestream.com?

wap.myvoicestream.com points to Infospace.com's website.
Did you talk to customer service on the phone? If so, they don't have an updated information on what phones Voicestream service will work on etc. You best find out about that elsewhere.

for a good rundown on setting up your T68 with Voicestream go to this site (he did it all with a T39 but it is the same settings).

Don't expect to see the T68 in the US with the approval of VS or Cingular until maybe February or March. If you buy it from other than the operator you may end up with early software and it's not as convenient to get software upgrades in the US.

Did any of you upgrade to R1C? If you did, how?
