Protecting your Blackberry Pearl from damages!

The Blackberry Pearl has a shiny stone finish – looks good. But as we know “Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting“; holds good for Blackberry Pearl too. The shinny finish has danger in many forms and a major form of danger is; hold on; it is “YOU”. Yes, every blackberry user is the primary cause for damaging his very own Pearl.

How is it possible? Here is how, your lovely touch, leaves your finger prints on it, even a soft wipe with hand causes minute scratches. Ifit continues, one day you will find your Pearl dirty and will never ever again Love it.

After serious of considerations on protecting my Pearl, I ended up with a skin for my pearl and a screen  protector from Seido. It is the cheapest and best solutions I know so far.  It is only $15.95 and available for purchase from http://www.seidioonline.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=530, comes in two colors – ‘Frost White Skin case’  and ‘Jet White Skin case’.

My Pearl after skinning and applying the screen protector looks like this:

Though there are rumors of availability of a Silicone Skin that would not hide any of the Pearl’s beauty, it is so far not officially available, will update this post when I try it out.
