the pads on the black 1k are the same exact size as the blue 1k. the only difference between the two is the color. everything else is exactly the same. so as long as you upgrade your OS to 2.1 everything you read about the blue will apply to the black one.

you might be getting the 'black 1k' and the new '2500' mixed up... the newer model is the 2500, which is bigger than the 1k... the 1K's come in black now (and same size as the blue & red)...

the black 1k and the red/blue ARE the same EXACT same size.

like J-Villa said, you are getting the 2500 and the 1000 confused.

i can take the pads off of the black 1k and put them on the red/blue 1k and vice versa and it would be a perfect fit.

trust me.
