i have been trying to find someone at tmo to answer this for a long time with no help. I currently have he sunset curve 8320, but i however want the pinkberry. is there a way to buy the pink housing from tmo, i do not want to spend 400 dollars on a brand new phone just for the housing change

T-Mobile never offered an 8320 in pink, so it would have to be an aftermarket housing. The downside is that it will void your warranty to change it, if you have one

Try cnn.cn. I think they will have what you are looking for.

You could also try fonlogix.us they have really good prices and ship right away. They shipped my pink housing 3 day ups. It costs about $30 for everything you need to switch out.

The 8330 is a CDMA model, like Verizon or Sprint would carry. T-Mobile only offered the Sunset (The color you have) or the Titanium (Silver). The 8330 housing would fit just fine if you can find one.

T-Mobile DOES NOT have the Pink Curve.

CNN.CN, Colorware.com, eBay are all resources. You can get the HOUSING ONLY (without the midplate) for $20. Crackberry also has instructions on how to change housing in the How To forums, and if all else fails, take it to a side dealer that buys used phones - generally they can change the housing for you, for cheap.
Those are your only options, unless you care to paint your blackberry yourself.
