Replacement battery for Sony Ericsson Live With Walkman?

I need to replace the battery of my Sony LWW.
How are ERD batteries?
Where can I buy OEM genuine batteries online?

My friend bought one from eBay

My friend bought one from eBay

Which one was that - OEM or ERD? How is the backup?

I am finding contrasting reviews for the original battery - some say the backup is bad while some say it is the same as it was. No one says anything about improvement.

I am happy with the quality of ERD chargers but I have no idea of their batteries.

Been using this ERD battery for more than 6 months. Battery backup is identical and I often change ROMs so cannot really say whether it was ROM or battery.. but it was damn cheap compared to the original OEM battery which cost me 40% of the Phone's cost.

Oh man! I just ordered EP500 from Amazon.in but at 550 Rs. (Gadjet Guru) Amazon.in: Buying Choices: Sony Ericsson Vivaz Battery EP500 1200mAh

I am not sure if it is genuine as other sellers quote 700+ for the same.

I bought it locally for 250 (I think) !!

So that "original" looking battery has failed already! This time I will try to get ERD.
