1) It's not that noticable. I hardly see it if I don't look vey hard for it. The screen is great IMHO.
2) Yes
3) The camera resolution is 288x352 which is better than the Panasonic GD87 for example, but lower than P800 etc.
4,5) Don't know
6) The standby and talk time is very good.
7) Firmware updates will surely fix bugs. And SE is very good at relesing new firmware. The sound problems with bluetooth headsets will most likely be fixed

Yes.. Theme Creator Pro 3G is an excellent theme editor.
9) There are quite a few games. Both Java and Mohpun games.
10) I think that T300/T310 games will work, but they will not take advantage of the better screen. But you'll not be able to transfer them between the phones, because they are locked with the IMEI-number of the phone. The free SE games might work though.
11)
http://www.mophungames.com or visit SonyEricsson Fun page.
12) IMHO the Mophun games are of higher quality than the Java games I've seen.
13) See 11
14) See 11.. and look for QSoccer
15) Don't know
16) Your fingerprints leave marks on the screen, but you can easily wipe them of with the included cloth
17) No idea.

So many questions! Well, here I go...
1)I keep reading bout the T610's screen flicker - does it P#@$ you off. And will it be sorted out by a free upgrade?
No, I honestly never even notice any flicker unless I really look for it in some games (and even then I suspect it is often a case of the way the game is programmed)
2)The camera in the phone-is it a shoot what you see styel like the one on the Panasonic GD87-and not like the MCA-20 where u need decent lighting conditions
Not sure what you mean. Don't all cameras shoot what you see? As will any cameras the fact that there is no flash as standard means you need decent lighting conditions, but you can change the output brightness (and shutter speed with upgraded firmware) which helps a bit.
3)The resolution of the camera-ne good?
Good for what? Assuming you mean the overall quality not just the resolution (because you can imagine what a resolution of 388×252 looks like) don't expect it to be comparable with even the cheapest of proper digicams, but for it's purpose it does the job I suppose.
4)Anyone going to tell me when Cyren communications will be getting the T610 on Orange PAYG in store and
available to buy
I don't know, there is a huge thread about this phone on Orange somewhere though which may tell you.
5)How long before the Flash attachment is out-and how much will it cost
Haven't a clue. I haven't heard any mention of this other than the original announcement from SE so it's just a case of waiting to see I suppose.
6)Is the Battery Life on it any good
Mine is only lasting 2 or 3 days so far (the phones a little over a week old) but I play with it non stop (playing games, lit screens and using Bluetooth drain the battery quickly) it gets better apparently after the it's been through the charge cycle a few times.
7)Will the firmware updates iron out the problems and if so does anyone know what sort of things they will be sorting out
Best to keep this sort of question to the relevant threads that already exist rather than hiding bits of information all over the place on these forums.
8)Is there a theme creator like theme creator Pro available which will work with the T610
Yes, it's called Theme Creator Pro.
9)Are there many games on the phone and if so are they any good
I can't remember which ones were on my phone and which ones weren't when I got it to be honest. There are so many to download though (with more coming all the time) so you'll always find a few you like.
10)Is it possible to download t310 games down onto the T610 and they will still work
I haven't tried it, but I believe they work. Some will only take up a fraction of the T610's screen though.
11)Is there a site which has a decent array of games available for the T610
There are a few threads dotted around that should help you here. To get you started though, try .
12)Morphun games, are they that much better and how can you tell the difference between them and java
To me they seem to run smoother and load quicker, but you'll have trouble finding good free ones. Java is more popular amongst developers because of wider support. You can tell the difference on the phone because they are stored in a different menu to the Java games and they don't have a Java popup when they load.
13)Where do you get Morphun games from
See answer for qu.11
14)Anyone found a downloadable game that is in the same league as the all time classic 'Sensible Soccer'
There is a demo for a Soccer games floating around somewhere. I think it was a Mophun game that you have to pay for in its full form though.
15)Is it possible to buy anything that will remove the glare form the screen either for the T610 or the T68
i-something like an anti glare perspex or somat and if so where do u get them from
I've never seen anything like this being sold, but that doesn't mean they don't exist! The most obvious solution I can think of would be a polarised screen overlay, but I guess that would interfere with the TFT screen.
16)Ive read about how the phone leaves dirty marks all over it-are they easily removed or do you just smudge your sweaty fingerprints.
I noticed this for the first few days, but after that I just stopped thinking about it. It's easy to clean either with the included cloth or just a wipe on any soft clothes you are wearing.
17)Many changes in the Version which orange are putting out and that of the sim free
Orange removes some SE stuff (pics, sounds and themes) and adds a few bits of their own (WAP customisation, a couple of changed icons, pictures and a theme). There’s nothing too intrusive on there.

My T610 does flicker like you said.. I thought i was the only one with that problem. But I got another problem with my phone, that is the camera. When I take photos in a not so bright condition, I can see a very clear thin pinkish line. Is anyone experiencing this problem? I am really very worried about this. I hope someone can advise me on my problem, so that maybe i should get it repaired or what..
For others who want to buy this phone:
My T610 screen does flicker. Not very noticeable but can see. The battery life is stable. Ability to beam things is great. Picture caller ID is way too cool, nice colour screen in the dark, the camera is a 1-2 seconds slow, meaning you may not get what you shoot.. I think that's the good part. Not forgetting to mention the MusicDj, interesting.. Bad points: Back cover will loosen if you open it often, screen gets dirty easily by fingerprints, screen flickers and the THIN PINKISH LINE ON MY CAMERA! Basically, that's all.. I would recommend this phone to everybody! From Singapore

well it looks like im going to buyit- when i say about the camera shoting what it sees-on the t68i with the camera attatchment-it would stuggle to shoot things that were in dimly lit places like the pub-roughly at the same time my mate picked up a gd87 and he could pick up exactly what w were seeing. Thi witht the adjustable brightness-if i was to buy a t610 now would the firmwae be the latest-baring in mind that wen cyren get em they will be fresh stock-also anyone know wen cyren are getting them on orange payg

Perhaps you should ask Cyren that!, how on earth would we know what firmware their stock is running?.
