Here's a lil something I stumbled across while looking for spares for my StrTrk a few days ago... I think this Orange TyTN II case looks great! It's OEM too, which is interesting, as it makes me suspect that someone, somewhere will be launching a TyTN II in this colour. It looks similar in colour to the Softbank X02HT don't you think? wink.gif

Anyway, that aside, who's going to be the first to spring for $79.99 and then be brave enough to dissect their Kaiser? I think it'd look SWEET! biggrin.gif

Edit: Helps if I include the link!

Are there any instructions on how to take your Kaiser apart? I tried getting the front face of mine off a while back but failed.

Quote like the colour - not as 'orange' as a certain operator would want if branding it. Sure it's OEM with no logos on it?....

p.s StrTrk spares are showing up on eBay now - I assume that big customer who cleared out the smartflips from eXpansys has stripped for spares...

I heard that that was going to happen (stripping for spares!)

IIRC someone in HK bought the lot!

Yeah but funny the mainboards never get listed so where's the value? £3 battery, £3 charger, £15 casing, £15 LCD, £3 pouch (smartflips came with a carrying case) and £3 headset - for a phone that was selling @ £59.95 - even assuming a healthy bulk discount it hardly seems worth it if you add in labour to strip down....

Am liking the colour, but think that the price is a bit steep - for that price I'd want someone fitting the new case for me!

It really does look nice, but I would definitely want someone to do the installation for me. Also I would want to know if the orange paint would ever come off b/c if I'm spending that kind of money I want it to last indefinitely. Also, it is anodized not adonized finish wink.gif

It's good to see you English blokes are supporting the Orange Team in the European Championship now that the English team has decided to stay home this June... tongue.gif
