Actually... yeah, maybe get out a bit more...

But there's scratches all over the bottom and top of the phone because I picked it up used... so I want it to look pro :).

Blue is nice....

My friend is painting his phone with pictures!
You need some skills, but if you know someone that has them, go for it!
It's cool to have a phone with Gandalf scheme... :-D

What kind of paint do you use to paint electronics, like PPCs, Phones, MP3 Players, etc. I would like to repaint my Jornada 568, as the paint has rubbed off in several places (this is a common problem with the Jornada).

Yeah, I'd like to know that too. Some other guy that painted his phone used car paint, and it looked pretty cool:

But is there any special paint?

Ya, there's a special kind of spray paint that bonds molecularly to plastics, as no other kind of paint will stay. I forget it's name, sorry.

How is the SmartPhone? Is it actually functional, or pretty much just a toy? What phones have you had in the past to compare with? Do any smartphones have bluetooth?
