I have a phone like this, it has no mp3, but I like the design, but when u try to lock it with "#" it shuts down, I don't know if it's the battery. It has gr8 colours and the sound is awsome.
I like it, but I will change it soon :)

a short story about this phone...
BenQ-Siemens S68 is capable of decompressing ZIP archives. Actually, the web browser decompresses them. But, there's one BUG. Bug in capital letters.
When you're unzipping a big archive and you run out of space (this phone has 26 megs), instead of stopping and warning you, it hangs and you have to take the battery out to restart. Now, this OS (firmware) doesn't boot very well when you have about 200 bytes left...
The first two times I tried to boot, it crashed right after "Startup assistant" closed. Third time, it worked, but was slow like h3ll. I managed to open "dictating machine" and delete everything from it (I use "dictating machine" as a notebook because it's accessible from Java apps such as Opera Mini -- I record ~1 second and write my note in filename) and freed up about 157 kB. The fourth time it worked. Now I check what size zipped files actually are.

To enter pause, hold 0 key, the "+" sign will act as "p" when in the middle of number.

To FLEMO: Thank's guy, I will try again. How long extends the battery life with BL-4C?
The original battery provide me less than 3 days life.

To Version 52: I tried BL-4c in my E71 and it was working. But it is not 100% same, metal contatcs have just a bit moved position, so after pluggin battery into pnone one of contacts was in wrong position. It needs just to move it with little help of needle to correct position - metal to metal and it should work.

I have tried to put Nokia BL-4C battery without success. The phone doesn't recognize it.
It is th worts GSM software I have ever used. Now I will sell it and buy Nokia 1112 and will stop to take care about bullshits as bluetooth & USB connections, synchronizations, themes, etc. I've paid a lot of money for GSM in last 10 years. Now I understood that as simlest it is as good will be. Does somebody knows where is possible to buy a new one Nokia 6510 or Ericsson T39m?????

Does someone know how I can enter wait symbol "w" in phone number? It's very useful when you need to wait for reply from answering machine and farther send some codes to it by manual request. Nokia phones let to do it by pressing "*" key 3 times and symbol "w" appears in current position. I've found only "Enter pause" in S68 phone in "Option" menu. If I will not be able to do it I throw this phone to the window.

The network sensity is betetr than NIOKIA and SONY ERICSSON too. Only one sign is enough to make a call. For example NOKIA 6230 and Sony Ericsson K750i with 3 signs are not able to establish connection (tested 01.05.2007 at Rila Mountain). Good luck!

I have used that GSM since 6 months. Software version is 30, built for Orange. It works properly with all domestic networks. No problem. The problem apears when I switch to Bulgarian language. It freezes. When it is in English - perfectly works. Very good phone even than NOKIA 6020/6021/6230i/6233. The voice memo and organizer are great. Only one problem I have it is the battery capacity - up to 3 days and colapsed. It is possible to solve that "power less" when use NOKIA BL-5 battery. The life time becomes 5-6 days but you need ORIGINAL one battery. Otherwise the phone is not switch to on. It is not possible to upgrade firmwere to higher when I use Orange phone. I tried it unsuccessfully.

I´ve been using S68 since last August. In that time I have had all kinds of problems with tihis phone. It freezes, it wont charge, often unable to connect to my PC. The support site has not helped at all. The Icelandic agents not very good.
I will not buy a Siemens phone again.
