Default Trackball - dumb question

Please Login to Remove!

I know I should know this but...

Any model trackball will (should) fit any blackberry, right? For example, if I want the black trackball from an 8900 to go into my 8830, I should be able to do that, right? My white trackball is getting kind of grungy, and would like to swap it out with a black one instead.

Thanks all!

It should. The good folks at verizon swapped mine (curve) with one from a pearl so I'm thinking they're all the same. If you're still not sure call your provider and I'm sure their tech team can tell you.

The cheapest option would be to continue using your current trackball until it is so "grungy" that it becomes black. That will give you something to work towards!

I've done that option with O2 but it took them ages. But it does eventually work
