I decided to purchase this phone and I am happy for the most part. There are a couple things I do not like about it though. While I LOVE the color screen, it is awfully hard to see it during the day if it is too bright outside. The reception is pretty flakey in my opinion too. When I had the PocketPC phone, I would get reception in the house and with the T68i I barely get a signal in the house at all. And both use GSM and GPRS networks. The only two reasons could be because the PocketPC was using T-Mobiles network and the T68i I have is using ATT's and also because the T68i has an internal anteanne (spelling?) it could be causing it to not have the same range. Any ideas?

I love that I can sync the phone with MS outlook and that is has Bluetooth abilities as well.

What do you guys think of the T68i?

1. ATT sucks.
2. ATT GSM Sucks
3. T68i has a weak internal antenna
4. I dont like the screen, 256 is weak.

Just unlock it and throw your tmobile sim in there. Or, if you go to a t-mobile store and tell them you lost the SIM, and then get a new one, and then call up the next day and say that your sim (your original SIM, dont tell them you got a new one) doesnt work, they'll switch it back to your first one, but the 2nd one will still pull from your account, and you can use both.

that make sense?

na I am not going to lie about it!:D I do think that ATT service as a whole is much much better than T-mobile. I have tried Verizon, T-mobile, Sprint, ATT and Cingular and overall I like ATT the best. Just my opinion!

Oregon, eh'. Its hard for me to judge, up here ATT's GSM is absolutly horrid, I either move them to ATT's TDMA or T-Mobile if they really want GSM.

besides, I absolutly hate ATT ;)
