mine is the same way, pretty much like the 7290

tight as can be....just like I like my women.

Mine has just enough play to be a little annoying at times. However, most of the time I don't even notice.

Single thickness of business card torn in half fixed mine.

Used a thin piece of plastic film from a CD slip cover cut to fit to stop it from moving. Just enough to get friction but not too much to stress the plastic clips or bulge the cover. Too bad- that would have been easy to fix during design & testing of the thing.

Yes, but then you wouldn't get the chance to play MacGuyver :-P

That's how you like 'em, but how are the one's you get? :wink:

[bigred]

Mine has a slight amount of play as well. Not as bad as any of the 7100s I've seen.. The 8700 and 7100 have a similar battery cover style.

[mortys11]

built up the back with masking tape and added some tape at front clips...

tighter than a nun !

The 8700c covers are tight. So tight they are a pain to remove.

Reminds me of a Maddona song..."Like a V...gin":smile:

I wonder how many broads we have on this board and if we're loosing them as we continue this thread.

[mortys11]

ya, how many broads?

are any of them hot?

[barjohn]

I guess we could have blamed it on how large or small the battery was:)

[Dude]

It's not the size of the battery that matters, but how long it lasts.

Ok, if we have satisfied all of the PC police can we now move on?

No kidding... Mine is so tight it's a struggle to get the cover off.

[nb_mitch]

Mine is tight, not "Like a V..gin" as my 7290 was, but good which is good. My 7290 I felt like a it was going to break every time I tried to get it off...

[romerom]

my 8700 is tight and i was glad because my 7290 would come off way too easy.

[delmarco]

Yes, but then you wouldn't get the chance to play MacGuyver :-P

OWNED!!!!

lol!

I like my women loose....so that way I can tighten them up.
:razz:

Whoever gave the idea to stick half a business card in between the battery and the door ... bravo! It worked perfectly for me!

Now back to tight vs. loose women ;)

I used to do something similiar w/ paper or a business card between the phone and battery way back in the days with my tdma Nokia when the battery got loose. Blackberry wise my 8700r door fits very tight.

I think the mere existance of a message board for Blackberries sent the women packing long long ago fellas, hate to burst your bubbles.
