Yes, the same people who have dash some crazy bold colors onto devices like the MacBook and iPhone 3G have taken the paint bucket to the T-Mobile G1. Colorware, as expected, charges quite a premium for their premium paint jobs, but that’s the price you pay if you want a Google Android phone that looks nothing like your neighbor’s.
The base price for the Colorware customization is $175, though certain colors and designs will run you a heavier premium than that. Naturally, you’ll need to provide the actual cell phone itself, so you can send in the one you already have or you can go and buy a new one to be customized.
The $175 price point seems to only paint the front face of the device, because Colorware is charging an extra $15 if you want new colors for the keyboard, bottom, or back. Get the mega deal with basic colors and you’re looking at $220.
Personally, I’m not a fan of making such a bold statement with my cell phone, but I can see how some more eccentric fashionistas may be so inclined. The blue and orange theme shown here, I must admit, is pretty hot.
