    This is completely subjective, as is your comment.
    How did you get the corners rounded so well? That would be the biggest challenge I would think.

    The silver looks better than that. Why do people dislike the silver?
    I don't own a Z30 but for me silver looks cheap and doesn't match anything on the device.
    If they wanted to emphasize bottom side to be easily detected in darkness then they could make a ridged block that is distinguishable by touch during up swipe. Just my opinion.

    OP - you should open a store to cut and sell those stickers.
    Sell in variety bundles for people to try different styles.
    Perhaps leverage their "upcoming BBM stickers" ads somehow; introduce "BB10 stickers" that complement BBM ones.

    How did you round the bottom so perfectly? Do you have a template for us to use?
    I would keep rounding it and fixing it until there was non left, and I would start all over again.... OCD!

    perhaps this is something someone could offer. sticker packs for blackberry. Then you can either take it or leave it. Sure people can get the sticker material and trim it themselves but you can also make it made to order that is already cut so size. That would be a good business idea. i know some people like the factory colours so this would be a nice option for those that dont.

    The silver chin doesn't bother me. IMO it looks too plain in all black. Overall I like the looks of the Z30. It has an elegant professional look to it.

    For those wanting a full coverage, front, sides and back, of carbon fiber, Amazon now has the full skin including screen protector for the Z30 for $12.95 made by Skinomi. Not a bad price and looks good.

    They should have left the white Z30 with the silver bottom, which looks great (and is necessary to differentiate from the s4), and done the black Z30's bottom with the same glass weave as the back.

    How is it easily scratched material? Some people are just rough with the way they handle things. I've had mine since October and have no single scratch.

    What's not to like about the silver chin? The Curve 8900, Bold 9700 and 9780 all had a silver bezel and chin. It was never considered ugly before and is kinda like a BlackBerry trademark which gives the device a little character in a world full of black slabs.
