Did you have to end "thanks" with a "z"? Whatever. I took mine off with a razor blade, but it did scratch it up a bit. It appears to be silkscreened onto the phone, and not a sticker. I would recommend using a very fine sandpaper from a hobby store. You can always cover it with a sticker you like

Or you can buy one of the Kyocera batteries.

Speaking of which, do they offer a longer-lasting battery than the one that comes with the VM slider?

the batteries from both Virgin Mobile, and Kyocera-Wireless.com are $69.00 each. Aftermarket batteries can be purchased from eBay for as little as $8.00(buy it now price)

But that would be putting your ××× on the line of fire...no pun intended.

You mean the Virgin Mobile logo on the face of the phone? I think the goof off guy is talking about the *mtv logo on the battery.

I know what your talking about but do you think it would work on the VM logo on the 8500?

Well it's also not a sticker so it SHOULD work but im not going to test it on my 8500.

i just took my mtv sticker off the back of my slider with a little gentle sanding with some very fine wet dry sandpaper, came right off just be very gentle so you dont go throught the silver paint
