At the cost you're suggesting, it sounds like you can afford to experiment, maybe make a few sets, thick and thin, medium, etc. See what works best. Maybe even sell a few on here!

ORIGINAL: Finger Mullet
I'm just posting to myself so I can check it later ... lol ... crackberry posting.
After a close inspection of the plastic shrouds, the tips of the rad shrouds up to the mounts on the radiator and frame is the key break point line which needs to be extra flexible .... hmm a total of 6 oz biax in three 2 oz layers should do.....with the rest at 12 oz in two 6 oz layers withoverlap meshing at the breakline.
It wouldn't matter if the tips of the shrouds were a lot softer and bent easier than the stockers would it? With only 6 oz they may flap a little at hight speed (60+)
Anyone got a pic of a shroud that broke?

deej, I know what you mean. It seems like each forum service provider requires requires different protocals to be downloaded to the berry. I got sick of doing it, it was a pia. So I bought a cheap mini-laptop of ebay for ~$150. It's only 7"x4".
Just plug the crackberry into the mini-laptop and use the berry as a modem....works great and its actually FAST. Good points are regular web display and email. Bad points one extra toy to carry around and the mini keyboard is a little tricky to type on.....but WAY better than the berry.
I got rid of my home internet service because it works so good....just plug the berry into the big pc and surf away.
And yes I have a berry for real....I think it's the same one you got....the 8703e
