Just a question for those who have done it. After having done it, what are your thoughts a while later?
The appealing part is obvious - a different phone then most, and customization.
But specific to cnn.cn how is the quality? how does the paint fair? Is it worth the approx 80$ to do it? Was it worth the nervousness of taking your bold apart and also voiding the warranty?
I am thinking of the black bezel, black buttons, cover and red track ball - which given I have the rogers red keyboard will look awesome....just need some input on value vs headache here.
Lastly, after doing it - was it really as hard to do as i imagine?
From cnn how fast do the parts get to Canada anyone know?
Take a look at my signature on a newbie guide. I never took apart a phone ever in my life and I have had played with nearly every high-end phone to date. This was my first time taking apart a device and I was super nervous and scared too. For shipping to canada, I would say 2 days. Pay for the $19.50 shipping. It is worth it!

I am very happy I did mine. As an after effect my battery cover is tighter and more solid now. All black except for the charging contacts. woo hoo

Well I just saw your guide which looks great and easy to follow, and watched cnn's utube vids which make it lookk reasonable - ok assuming i do it, haha, hows the quality from cnn given its just painted parts? thanks again
