Can’t change the faceplates on the XL, just the regular sized one, which isn’t out in black yet. Sadly.

Of course, even if your employer is committed to diversity, it doesn't mean that the individual office or your team members share that mindset.

So long as you don't owe them money on the phone. With Verizon/AT&T, they say that they're subsidizing the phone, but, if you…
