Any idea when US companies like AT&T Wireless will pick up the T610? Also, how does the reception compare to the T68i?

I heard most T610s that had been delivered had to be returned for repair due to severe hissing.

I heard the same, how this got by testing is beyond me.

I picked one up as well, and it is a wonderful phone -- I've been waiting on it actually. With my phone sitting in my car outside, I can synch it via iSync over Bluetooth... very nice.

The phone has the combination of features, battery life, screen quality, and weight that I've been waiting for.

However, I've had one problem with my synching. To my surprise, iSync synched up all of my schedules and alarms from iCal as well -- but they are off by 4 hours (an alarm that was set for 1pm on my computer went off at 5pm on my phone).

Has anyone seen this? Any cures?

Have you made sure that the time zone and daylight saving are set the same way on your computer and the phone?

That fixed it for me...

The hissing is supposed to be fixed now. I bought one from the first batch, and got it updated for free in a service center. It wasn't terrible before, but is great now.

My contract just expired and I can get the same contract with that phone for the same money. Just a matter of time before I get it.

I'll give that a shot -- it's on "automatic" for the time zone -- I guess it isn't THAT automatic

This is definitely the best cell phone available in the USA, IMHO.

I just bought the phone last week and I have to say that it is indeed the best mobile phone I have used up untill now. I didn't have problems syncing (I don't have it set to automatically change the time-zones).

Does anyone have some good tips on what mophun games I can buy? I like playing games on my phone when waiting for my bus, etc... Yesterday I had a fun time playing mini golf to a total stranger on the train over Bluetooth.
