I don't have any solid black kitties (yet! - there are two hanging around my apartment I'm trying to tame!) but my sister has two. I can tell you about them and her RB Shadow.

Shadow was the best lapwarmer anyone could ask for. He was a senior cat when adopted but entered into her multicat household with no problems. He cared for the kittens, bathing them and snuggling them at night to keep them warm. His favorite activity was making happy feet on his meowmy all night. Shadow didn't have a mean hair on his body. Though some people may have been scared of him because he was solid black and very large, Shadow was nothing but goodness and a kitten at heart.

Oliver got his name because every time my sister would feed him, he'd say "Please, can I have some more?" Though once a stray, Oliver quickly became tame and very loving. He is famous for his headbumpies; I'm not joking when I say he once gave me so many headbumpies that I almost fell off the bed! Oliver's purr is loud and he is not sparing with it. His favorite activity is to meet his meowmy at the door and tell her all about his day. The moment she sits down on the couch, she can expect the headbumpies to start coming. He always wants to be as close to her as he can be.

Doppelganger (Doppie) knows a good thing when he finds it! My sister saw a black kitten outside her home and opened the door to feed it when it ran inside and simply never left! Doppie is never without a little smile on his face and loves to be packed around like a baby. He's a great lapwarmer. Though not much of a talker, Doppie has a purr that could melt the hardest of hearts. His favorite activies include laying stretched out on top of his meowmy at night and purring while he sleeps.

I hope these helped. I know why some people don't like black cats and I am saddened over this because they are as wonderful kitties as any other color. I only know one black kitty who isn't a sweetheart and that's not because he's black - he'd be a meanie no matter what color he was! (I'm working on taming him though! He'll be my friend whether he likes it or not!! )
