Big problems on optimizing query

Hi,

my tables are created with following statements:

CREATE TABLE t1 (
tid int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
someData varchar(45),
PRIMARY KEY (`tid`),
KEY `fk_did` (`someData`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM;

CREATE TABLE t2 (
id int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
tid int(11) NOT NULL,
someData varchar(45),
PRIMARY KEY (`id`),
KEY `idx_tid` (`tid`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM;

In my real application t1 contains about 1,500 datasets and t2 about 85,000,000 datasets. I have big problems to executing following query:

(q1) SELECT t2.* FROM t1 inner join t2 on t1.tid = t2.tid where t1.someData = 'iPhone';

The result requires minutes. Let's assume the id for "iPhone" is "123". Following query requires only 2ms:

(q2) SELECT * FROM t2 where t2.tid = 123;

Running an "explain" on query (q2) shows me, that the index "idx_tid" is used for processing the query, but not for query (q1). A query hint like "force index" does not change anything.

Is there a chance to use the index "idx_tid" for query (q1) and run the query nearly as fast as (q2)?
