New, Very Useful T608 Codes Discovered

T608 Rebate Update
In another SPI-proved-the-T608-naysayers-wrong turn of events, Sprint has started issuing rebate checks for the T608 $100 rebate. Most people that mailed in the rebate were initially rejected, due to the rebate center thinking that you had to be a new customer, and then that the T608 was not under the promotion (try and figure that […]
AT&T: T68i > T226 > T616?!
It appears that AT&T and Sony Ericsson are taking a bit of heat for offering people a T226 for their T68i, so that they can take advantage of 850 MHz towers (that were not around when GSM was launched with the T68i). The biggest complaint from people is the lack of connectivity options on the […]
