Elecite never fails to impress when it comes to their BlackBerry themes. New from Elecite is Spear and Archaic, both great themes with unique features.
Spear is an ultra-detailed green and black theme, fully customized with 8 customizable icons and an over-sized digital clock for your homescreen.
Archaic is an ultra-clean theme that looks great, is wallpaper friendly and slides horizontally between four pages giving you an app icon dock, calendar list, message list, and media page.
The Spear theme is available for the Curve 8350i, 8500 and 8900 series, Bold 9000 and Tour; the Archaic theme is available for the same models plus the Storm. Both themes go for $6.99.
