I recently got a lunar gray t68m with r1b firmware from a howardforums member in vancouver.. Great phone and i'll now be doing a review on it!

Pros
- Small size
Holding the t68 in one hand and the nokia 3390 in the other, you realize how much of a difference there is between the two

- Very light
- Nice curvy shape
- Rubber back to prevent slippage
- GREAT battery life! (No more charging everyday.. now its every 4-6 days!)
- Nice high resolution color screen (The smallest font is highly legible)
- Good reception (Even though the signal indicator might not show it, this phone has better penetration in tunnels than my 3390)
- Clock screensaver looks pretty darn cool
- Sweet orange keypad lighting
- Recurring alarm is very useful for work

Cons
- The battery is rattly and squeeky..
- Joystick doesn't seem that durable
- Keys are kinda hard to press (Sometimes don't register)
- Ringtones are kinda lame.. and the composer too
- The SE charger is kinda weird.. with the plastic connector thingy.. seems like it'll break if i accidentally step on it

Overall, a great phone! I didn't have any problems with the chrome covered yes/no keys and the volume slider on the side worked well for me...

One thing i'm not too happy about is that the t68m doesn't come with picture caller id! @#$! I'll have to get it upgraded..

The lunar gray faceplate doesn't look bad.. but i'm planning on getting a gold one. Seems more exotic
