New guy with a question

[skipnutz]

OK, first let me say hi to everyone. I recently got my first BB 7290 and love it. What I was wondering is does anyone know where I can find a replacement cover (the actual housing the blackberry guts are in) instead of using the blue one that it came. A clear case and battery cover would be pretty cool I think. I just dont know where to look to find them. Any ideas? Thanks in advance for your help

I've never seen colored replacement housings for Blackberries. Just replacement OEM housings like these:

There are however a few "skin" type cases available for the 7290.

The Blackberry Shop also has quite a few colored cases.

I guess this is to be expected when a bussiness tool hits the masses :razz:

Yeah, I wonder if my old Nextel boys from Hyper Wireless would want to start "modding" Blackberries with colored housings and flashing LEDS. ;)

Thanks for the info. I am going with an OEM style replacement cover. I got my BB used and it have some scratches. I just was looking to "personalize" my BB but keeping it stock will do the trick. Thanks for the info.
