Forse java su T68i!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Maurizio XP]

"Today I played with a T68 with a prototype software with Java, and the options effects and options for the Communicam MCA-25.

It was in at my university in Lund today that SonyEricsson showed all their new phones the T100, T200, T300, T68i, and P800. They also showed the new Communicam MCA-25

The T68i had prototype software with Java and some other enhancements. There was a new menu item in the "Fun&Games" menu called Java Manager There was also a debug menu item

I asked the SE person about the Java stuff in T68i but he didn't want to say much about it, just that they indeed were working on phones with Java engine. But he would not comment if Java will be available for T68. And after that they replaced that T68i with another T68i without the prototype software, because when I visited the stand an hour later the T68i at the display had the standard software.

But the SonyEricsson person did say that the newer software of the T68i will have support for the new effects of the new Communicam MCA-25.

I also played with a P800 prototype, and I have to say that it is just amazing. Not as big as I thought it was either. The P800 felt very fast and the browser was very good. The screen was very bright and sharp with nice and bright colors. The handwriting recognition was also very good, I had no problems at all. The P800 worked perfect and I would love to have one, it is truly amazing."

mi pareva strano che per un telefono da 400 euro non facessero il supporto Java :o

io comunque aspetto con entusiasmo le prime applicazione su Linux Embedded.
Pare che fara' il gran debutto con i terminale UMTS, ma non escludo che possa essere usato anche sui GSM di ultima generazione

Un T68I con supporto Java e display rinnovato sono convinto che potrebbe vendere ancora moltissimo

Mi sa che niente java...

"T68i – now with Java?
15 November 2002

The T68i is an almost complete phone with all the features you’ll ever need. The few things missing are polyphonic ring tones, downloadable games, built in camera and Java. Are T68 owners now getting Java on their phone?

Yes, we know it is possible to attach the MCA-20 CommuniCam to the phone, but it is still missing a built in camera. One of our Swedish forum members (FM) had a visit by Sony Ericsson (SE) to his university (Lund Sweden). Sony Ericsson hold a showcase for their new phone models. The FM was able to take look at the phone and fiddle with the menus. What he discovered was that there was a new menu item in the Fun&Games menu called Java Manager. There was also a debug menu in the demonstration model.

FM asked the Sony Ericsson representative about this new menu element and the SE representative answered that SE was working on phones with Java support, but refused to comment if Java would be implemented in the T68i.

The T68i is Sony Ericsson’s best selling model so far, and a huge amount of both T68m and T68i models are in circulation. We therefore doubt that they will release another T68(j) model with built in Java. Depending on which continent you are located, you are already able to upgrade the old T68m to a T68i for free by installing new software on the phone. The upgrade is undoubtedly a costly affair for Sony Ericsson and letting all current T68m and T68i owners upgrade their phone to a T68j will be even more expensive.

A future model could be based on the hardware found in the T68. It is more likely that we will find a new model called T400 or Twhatever00 with almost the same hardware and more added features such as Java.

As with all discussion forums, users can post whatever they like. There is no way we can verify the truth in what our members write. We have no reason to believe that what this FM posted is a lie, but you never know. "

Pare che il display sia già a 4096 colori e che sia possibile mettere il java... però si pensa che la SE non voglia rilasciare un simile agg sw perchè le costerebbe troppo... ma sono rumors
