Default Rogers case on Cingular 8700?

Please Login to Remove!

Is there any way to order the outer case from the Rogers branded 8700 alone?

I like the look of it more. Any info would be great.

I want to do the same thing. I like the look of the Rogers unit much better than my Cingular 8700.

I was considering buying a Rogers unit and trading out the case.

Does anyone know how hard that would be?

Thanks!

Cingular puts a sticker over the screw holes on their phones, If that sticker is missing they won't accept the warranty... Just a heads up. T-Mobile doesn't do this, but then again, they don't have the 8700.

I'm on Rogers and prefer the Cingular look. So I got myself an unlocked 8700c. Sabesh.

Is there any difference in the hardware? Will an unlocked Rogers phone work fine on Cingular Orange?

Where can I get an unlocked Rogers 8700?

Thanks!

As far as I know, no one's unlocked an 8700r as yet (Rogers version). Sabesh.

Does anyone know if Rogers sells the 8700 without a contract for service? If so, how much does it cost?
