Does anybody know if there is any replacement flip cover available for the SJ33?

My wife thinks the shiny black cover that comes with it makes it look like a cosmetic case! Besides that it seems to get slicked up with my greasy fingers.

I am thinking of an opaque hard cover with a leather skin - and best of all - a slot for storing MS's underneath it!

Wishful thinking! :D

the only replacements that I know of are the standard flip tops in three colors from sony style.

I just got a replacement cover from Sony, I broke the original cover. The replacement covers are different, they have a matte surface and are not shiny. They are 2-color though, black (or other color) at the top and silver at the bottom matching the silver front. It's a blend from top to bottom. It has a space-agey type look.

I didn't like it at first, but it's grown on me. Because it's matte, it doesn't get finger smudge marks!! As I said, I only bought it because I broke my original. Fortunately, the cover did its job and protected the screen!

I'd like to see a 3rd party come out with a metal SJ33 cover.

That sounds cool! Is there any photos of this cover at SonyStyle, or anywhere else? How about the white CLIE lettering on the cover? It's king of gay looking (not that there's anything wrong with that), and not my style.

Yes, a 3rd party cover would be very cool.
