Some of you people wanting to download logos from ESATO and other WAP sites,
don't buy the
new AT&T T68is with R5D007 firmware..  Why?  they disabled some of the
menu's - they don't allow you to save logos from WAP sites unlike normal
uncustomized phones - I guess they want to FUNNEL your through their AT&T
mMode service instead if you want to get a logo.

A lot of people argue that people are ripping of AT&T, well for one thing -
most of the providers CINGULAR, AT&T and etc rip off the consumers by
locking their phones and customizing the software and disabling menus..

The resale value of these values greatly diminish when such measures are put
in place (when the contract runs out)..
