It's called Verizon. They're a CDMA/ analog carrier.

There are two options I have heard of:
1. Send to Wisconsin
2. Send to a guy named "Rob" in Philadelphia.
Rob is an active participant in the ericsson forum on howardchui.com his name is Ke3ee, I think. Rob charges $25 and you pay for shipping. It sounded a little sketchy at first, but aparantely hundreds of people have sent their Ericsson phones to him and I haven't heard of any complaints.
I still have R1b. I am waiting for the picture Caller ID function in the next firmware release to upgrade my firmware.

I called ericsson and they told me to send it to an address in Minnesota. My phone was bought in China and had the T9 english text support missing, so that means, I should be getting that new version that came out 3/4/02. They don't charge anything for the flashing (upgrading) just as long as your T68 is still under warrenty, and they can find that out by referencing the numbers on the sticker under the battery. Everything was simple and easy, but it does take them a while to get it done, considering its been a week already and they just (today) called me and told me they just got the phone in their factories for the flashing. Just expect a 2 week wait, but for those who cannot wait that long, tough luck... we're in the (seems like the only) country with no support, and no public availability for the phone yet.
