Any Prism users did this???

Any one spray painted their Prism's body???

As usual, the blue paint is coming off, and I'd like to know what ya did to solve the problem.

Handspring's definitely not going to change it for me, although it's still under warranty....

Was thinking of spray painting it, but have no idea whether the paint will stay or not.

CHeers,
Andre

Sounds risky to me! You might just get a good leather case and hide it. My EB slipper case hides the paint and looks great. If you feel you have to paint it, be sure to take it apart so as not to gum up the buttons, IR, etc. Also I imagine you will need to sand it a bit or use a chemical to get the paint to stay.
Good luck!

My Prism started doing the same thing...then the datebook button got a little flakey and Handspring replaced it. The new one has been going for about 10mos with no paint problems at all.

Might check and see if you have "another problem" that will get you a warranty replacement.

R U Kidding????

Are you kidding??? the paint fades away on the prism??? This sucks!!! Well, I know a friend that spray painted a platinum and it came out horrible. It's been 4 months and the paint is starting to peel off. Stupid thing is he sprayed his memplug too and it was stuck in there.
