I am pretty sure most of you already know. But for those who doesn’t know how to create your own theme for your BlackBerry you can take a look to the article Just theme it! from the guys at RIM

What can you do with Theme Builder? Some of its main features allow you to:

  • Customize the BlackBerry application icons
  • Change the Home screen banner image and icon/indicator colors
  • Create your own buttons
  • Customize the look of dialog and pop up screens
  • Customize an idle screen
  • Customize the look of menus and lists
  • Customize the phone application screens
  • Customize fonts used on the BlackBerry device

And the result may look like this:

    Well,

    the 8800 is still a quite new device. We just have to hope it will work for the 8800 soon.

    The following sentence is part of the article we already linked:

    Theme Builder is the latest tool for BlackBerry® application development from Plazmic® (www.plazmic.com) and is bundled with the Plazmic Content Developers Kit™ (CDK).
