...ok....
Just posted this B4 the big crash....
...if anyone wants 2 use it, just do the old fasioned "Cut/Copy/Paste" with your 'preferred' screen cover material and apply to keep your PDA2K keyboard from getting all scratched up from repeated open/close cycles of keyboard....
I am currently using the Fellows WriteRight material.... but am not thrilled... If anyone finds a better material, plese share!!!!

Well i have imate k jam since 2 years, now it looks like a crap, scratches all over the body. Now what i am thinking is to decorate or paint the phone so as to make it beautiful.
But there isnt any easy way to paint the phone. So is there any way we can decorate our phone without taking much pain and risk. Any ideas guys...
I read somewhere you can use nail polish to colour coz it doesnt come out easily and looks good. I will try it, until than please contribute ideas to make our ugly phones beautiful
You could also purchase a new housing off ebay...
After spending nearly two months looking at all the various docks and stands and not particularly liking any of them as it's to go in the bedroom, and in an effort to try and stay away from device-specific accessories when possible , I decided to splash out (well, a whole £16.67 anyway) on a clingo sound sphere thingy thinking that it could be, erm, interesting.
Received it today and the shape is fantastic - not the colour though - white and grey plastic doesn't do it for me but nothing that some spray paint won't fix (it's out drying as I type - and yes, I did cover the clingy bit before spraying)...
The sphere rests on a separate rubber stand so that the viewing angle can be adjusted to anything (meaning you can also switch from portrait to landscape by repositioning the sphere) and there's also a hole at the back to thread a cable through.
There's only one thing that I don't like so much, and it's that the phone sits quite deep in the sphere making it a tad difficult for me to touch the screen given the length of my nails ... will have to learn to use knuckles I guess but given that I plan on only using it as a night-stand, it will do the job just fine.
Will upload some pics once it's dry but in the meantime, here's a couple from the clingo website:
Looks cool. Bit unusual but the shape would produce a nice sound from thew loud speaker - Thanks for sharing

Click to collapse
Well it is called "sound sphere"
That would be perfect if it could wirelessly charge the phone at the same time.
Yeah that would be excellent, but then it probably wouldn't be under £20 I've just tried with the cable plugged in the phone and it fits *just*, obviously not such a tight fit if you're not connecting it. Still, I'm rather pleased with my purchase especially now that it's a nice dark purple with a black stand.
looks very cool. wound love to see your painted version. PURPLE AND BLACK! what a fantastic choice of colours!
Small delay I'm afraid... I need to second-coat it but given the abysmal weather I haven't been able to do it yet In the meantime though I've fashioned a cardboard extention for the central piece (which is actually a plastic tube that slides into the sphere) so that the phone doesn't sit so deep in the unit, making it much easier for me to use the screen with my nails and also leaves more room around the phone when it's plugged in

i didn't like it... too ugly imo
Wait until I've finished the restyling and posted the pictures before passing judgement ... you'll probably like it even less
I am looking forward to some photos. Tell me, is cutting a notch or hole a solution to the tightly fitting cable issue?

Right, some (not very good) pictures...
Pic 1: the central piece which slides into the sphere onto which the phone clings and the sphere on its stand... this is what you get in the box, except that mine is now sporting new colours
Pic 2: my high-tech cardboard extension to bring the central piece forward. It slides in just like the original piece and also has the same cut out for the cable. Once that's in place, it's just a case of putting the cable trough then sliding the original central piece on top of the extension
Pic 3: extension + cable + central piece in place
Pic 4: side view of the sphere
Pic 5: phone in place, now plenty of room for it to be plugged in without the top of the phone or the cable getting wedged against the sides
Nice job, might I reccomend doing a clear coat to make a little more pro.?

I do have a satin top coat spray on standby (I really don't want a gloss finish), however the weather is not playing nice again today with gusty wind and rain threatening, which definitely aren't the best conditions for spraying... So once again I'll have to wait

Whats the sound like when you play music? Have been considering getting a speaker but if this sounded good it could be a good alternative.
Sent from my toilet.
Well it does sound better, though to be honest I'm probably not the best person to ask because when I play music on the phone, it's usually very low as background when I'm reading in bed. So depending on what you're after, speakers might be better - for me though it's perfectly adequate.
So just got phone and T-Mobile had a deal buy 2 get 1 free on accessories ....so...here is a review / DIY mod...
To start I used ...T-Mobile universal car cradle...very well made but not felxible ..it does telescope ..
Its gonna be used in my 04 Audi a4..
Then used paddle bit to bore hole for base to sit.
Little epoxy and off to set for the night...
Primed it with gray primer while I wait for my color match to come in from duplicolor paint
Ran wires for power and radio...tucked away nice n neat.
And poof...a somewhat iffy carmount turned into my media hub...
Any questions ask or pm me..
And please hit thanks of you enjoyed or I helped you out..
