I'd really love to see a white 8900 =(

It must look sexy. Having the black keyboard, black trackball. Post the like somewhere (eg; photobucket, flickr) & repost the links to the images.

Sorry about that guys, went ahead and fixed it. Wish I had another 8900 to take a picture with but all I was my brother 3G iphone

**Iceman** · 08-01-2009, 01:01 PM

I like the white, nice touch...

**spirez** · 08-01-2009, 01:04 PM

Quite like that. I think it would look better with a white trackball though.

I was really considering it, but instead I got the g1 trackball which is on its way.. Which in my opinion might be better looking than the red one.

Looks very nice.

I dunno I think the red trackball works well cuz of the red in the power button and red in the number keys.

Plus -- a white ball might look dirty pretty quick, and be gray or tan due to dirt.

**petaf** · 08-01-2009, 02:12 PM

Well I love it!! Very cool.

**KurtisBertolami** · 08-01-2009, 02:46 PM

I love it also. Wish I had the guts to do stuff like that on my phone.

Yes...... the red trackball gives a nice touch to the whole white body with black keyboard.....

You did it man! Wish I could mod my 8900 too.... and how I wish to clean my trackball that keeps getting stucked *grrrrr*

**crackberryangie** · 08-01-2009, 07:27 PM

Nice, i think it would look better with a black trackball. Also the white between they keyboard letters is a bit much, i woulda left that black. looks pretty good anyway :]

Kurtis, trust me.. I was on the same boat. It took me a yell from my brother saying "your grown do it yourself..'
" Only reason I asked him cause my hands are big and I suck at this kind of stuff and my brother is a genius taking things like these a part. But this morning I did it for the second time and I didn't even have to use youtube.. Its very simple, just follow youtube and you will be fine! Its worth it imo!

This is my opinion and mine alone but every white BB looks
plain and sterile. Not a good look at all.

**godzilla07** · 08-02-2009, 12:39 AM

That looks great. I would personally have a problem with the black face buttons but it still looks great.

**jfh2c** · 08-02-2009, 12:46 AM

What kind of paint did you use to do that? How many coats did you have to put on it? I need to replace my trackball and I figure if I have to take it apart anyway I might as well paint it up.
