I e-mailed SonyEricsson Yesterday asking about new hardware and this is what they replied:

ERE/0104IR/H11772-2(T68)

Dear Sir or Madam,

Thank you for contacting Sony Ericsson Contact Center. R2A is the latest software available for T68m in the market. It is nothing to do with the hardware.

Best regards,
/Hoda

Question:
Subject: Re: Customer support services, Case : 2836319
Hello,

Thanks for contacting me back. Do the NEW T68 phones that come with the R2A
software have a new hardware version?

All best wishes.

So what is the latest hardware version?

On the back of my battery, it reads:
BKB 193 150/71 R2A
so I assume i have hardware version R2A.
(Even though I got the phone beginning of January and am running software version R1B)

OK.
I got a reference to both R1A and R1B on the back of the phone.

R1B on the top line, R1A on the third line down.

Which one am I looking for?

Cool!

Cheers for that.
Is this the latest hardware version, or is there a newer model already?

The letter you got back from Sony wasn't very forthcoming about Hardware version numbers.
