So you just bought yourself a shiny new Blackberry, now what? Sure its tutorial will walk you through setting up your city and time, put in some owner info, and help get email running, but that is just the tip of the iceberg. Whether it’s for business or personal use you don’t want your device to get lost in a sea of clones so it’s important to customize your Blackberry.
One of the first things you can do is customize the outside of your device while also protecting it. You can go to a large electronics chain like Best Buy but they usually have only one or two choices because of the large volume of models. Another option is at the local mall where you can usually find a kiosk that has many cases for the current phone models, the variety here is nice but the quality is very poor. The best option if you don’t mind waiting for shipment is to purchase online. Online stores will likely give you access to twenty or more cases for your model and they range in design and durability. Two other options for outside Blackberry appearance are getting the shell professionally painted or a customized battery cover from Coveroo.
Now that the outside is taken care of, it’s time to customize your blackberry inside. There are many ways to do this and most are free. One form of customization is to download apps to make your device an extension of yourself, while this is technically customizing the original device; it’s not making it your own. The two best options for making your Blackberry stand out above the rest is a new theme and a custom background. You can find many free themes online or even download the theme creator called Plazmic from RIM and make your own. Themes generally change the icons and also the layout of your Blackberry interface. Many themes also change your background but I think it’s more interesting to find a replacement background yourself or even select one from a photo you’ve taken with the Blackberry camera. However you chose to customize your device just make it express yourself and have fun with it.
