I got an email last night from Peter about Elecite’s latest theme release Opus. In actuality I was a little surprised as this look tends to differ from the stuff Elecite usually puts out. A rich, dark tapestry like background with an almost dual screen type concept…definitely an eye-catcher. I myself tend to like less icons on the home screen and themes that are more simple in design, however I did test the Bold version and my tastes aside…the theme works well. It’s a pretty good size file to download but once it was activated, it ran really smooth for me.
Opus is available for a variety of devices and take note that the theme will differ between them…so check all the info to make sure you’re getting the theme you expect. According to Peter, [Opus] definitely has its own uniqueness. You get multiple sets of customizable icons by tapping on one of the 2-3 dots on the bottom portion, for the latest BlackBerry models and 1 for the older 8300/8800. It sort of works like the dual-screen animation but faster and smoother. All icons are customizable but the top 5…those cannot be changed. Opus is available for the BlackBerry Storm, Bold, 8900, 8300 and 8800 models. **This theme and like any other Elecite theme, will not work on OS version .151 or the new Tour until we perform the necessary updates.
On a final note, Peter told me that they are offering a 30% off coupon to the first 200 buyers who enter the code ‘opus’ at checkout (Opus costs $6.99). Keep in mind though that other sites have published this same promotion so you may or may not make it in time, but I thought it worth a mention. You can purchase Opus at Elecite.Com

I like but it looks strikingly similar to my theme, Storm X.

They’ve been saying they will update their themes for OS .151 for weeks now..You would think with the loss of revenue from this they would be quicker..
