Hi
I have just received the following from

about the upgrade to a T68i.

Dear Mr ?????,

Thank you for contacting Sony Ericsson.

With regards to your enquiry concerning the T68 handset, there will be
software available in the not too distant future, which will allow your
phone to use MMS. However we do not have a release date for this software.
Also you need to make sure that the network you are using will allow you to
use the function of MMS.

The software will not upgrade the handset to a T68i, it will include some
functions of the T68i, but not all of them will be available.

If not all the Functions which ones will be dropped.
What do you think.
Tom

use the MMS feature.
Please let me know.

I have my daults about if the people working at Sony Ericsson really knows what's right or wrong. I found an article today on Mobil that says that they have spoken to product manager Per Alksten, and he claims that the software will be the exact same on T-68 as T-68i when updated late May.

You can find the complete article here (in Swedish though): http://www.mkf.se/nyheter/visa.asp?id=4870&sid=1

@Bart

I don't think that by sending e-mails to

will achieve anything. I am sure they know what and how to do something. They have a plan to follow and I am sure they will do it. I addition, I am not so sure if people handling e-mails know much details about the software. They just giving us general answers like: the MMS software will be availale but we don't know the timing..... etc.

Spamming them wont do it - for sure. What I wonder though is why they don't release it. It has been released for the T68i, and the same source I mentioned before claims the hardware to be exact same as T68. Then why not just release it! That is what I find strange.

This could mean:
(1) They are rewriting the code for some reason for the T68.
(2) The hardware is not the same.
(3) They are reducing features just to include MMS, not picture phonebook etc.
(4) They are holding it back for some marketing reasons (maybe to sell more of the new T68i now in the beginning).

Just my thoughts...
