Does anyone know where to get OEM or Aftermarket replacement housings for the 8700?

If someone made high quality blackberry replacement housings in a black metal matte, or a gun metal grey they'd make a killing.

OEM replacements will not be available for another 6 months or so. If you use the search button, you would have known.

No kidding. A little search would have turned up about 10 threads one with a Pro Mobility status. You will likely only see the carrier specific replacment faceplates. From what I have seen no two 8700s have been a like so an 8700c case would not fit an 8700r.

A friend of mine opened up his 7290 and painted it blood red. Looks amazing. Voids the warrenty though, wouldn't suggest it. As for 8700 cases, I'm waiting until my 1 year standard warrenty is done. My extended warrenty continues for 3 years, and isn't voided by face plates.
