It's amazing what a simple search at eBay can bring up

You can also try cnn.cn, but the last time i looked, they didn't have housings for the W900i.

Hi mate.

Our good and trusted friend batesie has one for sale and I wouldn't pass up on this if I were you.

He has even gone to the trouble of getting all the little extra parts like Walkman stickers, keypads, fastport covers etc, which are very hard to find.

He was going to change his own W900i's housing but he lost a couple of fingers when was attacked by a Hippo in Kenya last Thursday and so doesn't need the parts anymore (though he does need a couple of fingers).

I think a black housing with white keys would look weird. Black keypads are available though.

Here are some pics. I like the W900i in all white with voda removed. However, I think mixing the keypad and colour housings cheapens the phone somewhat.

I have only been able to find Black non-OEM housings. I haven't been able to find White non-voda housings or keypads anywhere.
