hi guys,
Anyone know where i can buy genuine SE w900i full housings from. I have seen on ebay but they are fakes. Although they are some nice colours.
And i dont want housings with codafone on them.
Thanks |

As far as I am aware there are no official W900 housings available at the moment.

I can't find any place to get original shell for it either.
I wonder if it got to do with the fact that W900i is the only unit that is still made in Japan?
The believe reason why there are places that sell original SE housing is they are made by subcontracting companies in China or Taiwan. And those companies are not shy at all about selling the mold or finish products to companies other than sony.
But I'm not complaining at all. 
They made spare part accessible and the prices low.

But would the glass be scratch-proof?

I am looking for a black housing for my W900 but there is no OEM cover available which is sad. There are some on ebay though but I don't fancy these at all. They look terrible. |

Is the w900i made in Japan the reason why there is such problems to find an oem cover?
If so, I need to be patient to get a black oem cover. |

i've seen OEM W900i housings for sale at my local SE authorized service center here in the philippines, although i only saw a white one. the service centers here are pretty good about carrying housings for all SE models so i'm pretty sure that if i requested for a black one, i could get one eventually. |

senninha,
i am sure id be able to get one from service centre here in Melbourne also. They had k750i ones when i had that. I should prob give them a ring. But the w900 isnt really available here yet, only some places have, so it would be hard to find.
With my k750 i asked a phone store if they had the covers, they said no they had to order them in from SE at $80aud.
Maybe the places who are selling these phones could order me one?? hmmm i really need one i hate the vodafone logos
