Here is one on Ebay

I asked the guy, (speaks engrish) and the add is actually for the housing not a battery. Appears that the chrome on the camera must be a sticker or something. Guess a guy would just have to order one, wait a month and see what it looks like.

i actually mailed htc about this a few weeks ago because i wanted to see if i could pay to get them to change my brown casing to silver, this is what they told me:


Dear *** ********,

Dear ***, Thank you for contacting HTC. I understand that you would like to change the casing of your Desire phone into a silver colour. Unfortunately this is not option we currently offer to our Desire customers, the main reason is that the touch screen would also need to be removed and changed. Should you require any further assistance, don't hesitate to contact us again. Best regards Aurélie

To send a reply to this message or let me know I have successfully answered your question log in to our ContactUs site using your email address and your ticket number 10GBCW33ENA001976.

Sincerely,

Aurelie

HTC
