Brand New T-Mobile Blackbery Pearl - $300 obo

Backstory:
I have a Blackberry Pearl in Black on Cingular. I wanted a White Pearl, but Cingular didn't offer it. So what'd I do? I bought a brand new White Blackberry Pearl from T-Mobile at retail price, and swapped the housings using this tutorial. So now what I have for sale is a Brand New T-Mobile Blackberry Pearl (literally never been powered on), in a Black Cingular housing. The transplant was done without damage in a dust-free environment, using the recommended dental pick, T-6 Driver, and silicone gloves.

Am I crazy? Probably. The end result is a cheaper Pearl for you, and a White housing for me.

Updated 03/08/07: Asking $250 obo.

Does this void the warranty? - you disassembling it? Does it have a phone contract or pay as you go type? World wide phone capabilities?

Warranty? Not sure, although the original IMEI number is there, and any time they get returned for warranty it just goes to someone who probably just looks at the IMEI and verifies that the cellphone doesn't have visible/water damage. Upon disassembling the phone there were no Void if Removed holographic stickers like the old cellphones used to have. I have warranteed about half a dozen few Blackberries at my work in the past few years, so if worst comes to worst you could always have me call it in for replacement.

No contracts or anything, I paid cash for it at a Skyline wirless (reseller) store.

It is a quad-band world phone, on 850/900/1800/1900 MHz

It is locked to T-Mobile, but you can buy an unlock code online.
