Hey just found a black housing for the 8900..

they have blue, red battery covers as well..

the all black looks hot!!

Oh they are finally in, and they sell the black bezel to replace the silver one seperately as well. Nice.

But wow, have you seen the disassembly vid? I hated taking apart my 8320 but the 8900 looks scarier as you have to take out the antenna connection. My 8900's silver bezel is already all scratched up from a few drops but after watching the video, I really don't feel like taking apart my 8900.

yah i saw the video.. i would definitely not do it myself! but i don't wanna pay $80 to get it done casue i do not know what they do to the phone haha..

but still looks sweet..

i was watching it a few times and from the looks of it, it seems unnecessary to disconnect the antenna. it looks like its connected from the middle to along the sides; not touching the bezel. but what do i know...i dont even have one yet. it looks way better in black then it does silver.

This look so nice think i may get rid of my BlackBerry storm and go for the 8900 looks hot in Black

Looks good, but I bet you'd lose your guarantee dont you?

i ordered mine...along with the cover openers and T6 screw driver..

i watched the video and it looks hard but doable.. and like mentioned above it doesn;t seem like you have to disconnect the antenna wire..
what i don't understand is that the top cover where it says BLACKBERRY just comes off in the video!! i am assuming u have to use the case opening tool?

That video is for a full tear down. Unfortunately I can't tell at which step the ring comes off.

[muck]

you would only disconnect the antenna, if you needed to get lcd out.

its just 4 clips that removes the face from the housing.

I myself sucessfully disassemble my T-mobile Germany 8900. It is not difficult. You can try.

All black gets kind of repetitive sometimes... I think I'm starting to like the gun metal trim.
