I think Sprint may have missed the Valentine’s Day boat on this one. Still, if the standard black and silver facade of today’s typical BlackBerry ain’t your thing, Sprint could indeed be well-served by bringing a new splash of color. Rumor has it that Sprint may have a BlackBerry Curve 8530 in the works, in red. If the Black and ‘Lavender‘ options aren’t doing it for you, red could be a welcome choice for some.

One day down the road I’d love it if you could pick and choose your device colors, or heck, even personalize it, as a service offered right from the carrier. I’m not talking about one-color options here, I’m talking full-out ColorWare style customization here. Of course, this will probably never happen for numerous reasons… So we’ll all need to continue to send our devices away to have them customized with the livery of our liking (for hundreds of dollars)… But still, wouldn’t that be awesome? Just think of the array of color schemes we’d see on devices around town if color customization and personalization was a standard option.

‘Yes, I’ll take a BlackBerry Tour 9630 with a carbon fibre battery cover, keep the stock chrome bezel, blue front color, and white keyboard with black lettering. Can you do that for me?’

One day, one day.
