BlackBerry Curve 8900 review

Phones Review : If you are an owner of the Research In Motion BlackBerry Curve 8900 smartphone have wanted to get the smartphone a makeover but haven’t wanted to have to send the handset away you’ll be pleased to know that according to the guys over at Crackberry, you can now makeover your BlackBerry Curve 8900 without sending it off.

Apparently ColorWare contacted the guys to let them know they now offer a “Parts Only” service for the BlackBerry Curve 8900 whereby there’s no need to send them your smartphone and be without the device as all you need do is order the parts you require.

They do say though that the Parts Only prices are a tad expensive and start at $159, however for BlackBerry smartphone owners who do want true customisation on the BlackBerry they recommend ColorWare as the way to go.

Now that ColorWare offer a Parts Only option for the BlackBerry Curve 8900, will we see other parts only options become available for such BlackBerry smartphones as the BlackBerry Bold 9700 or even the BlackBerry Storm 2 in the not too distant future?
