White iPhones available at most likely every AT&T and Apple store Friday

We just got word that in the initial iPhone shipments to AT&T and Apple stores, they received the white 16GB version. There was news that there were no white units available in O2’s U.K. inventory, but we’ve confirmed the availability of white units in the U.S. for Friday’s launch. Now the real question … black or white? Please don’t make this into a race issue in the comments. Please.

    Gotta go with black. Even though the white will show scratches/fingerprints less, the black looks much cooler. If the front were white too, I might reconsider. Gotta have uniformity in the design!

    Gotta go with white, I think. Less fingerprint-y. Also takes me back to the 1G iPod I used to have. :)

    I think white would be cool seeing theres not many white devices out there, the part i do worry about is will the white stain over time or turn yellow?

    After seeing the unboxing photos yesterday, it re-inforced my decision to go white. The fingerprints on the black looked outta control!

    BLK all the way!! I like white but something about black makes it more appealing when it comes to devices and vechiles.
    Blk = stealth, luxury, mystery and did I mention how great women look in black attire lol!

    I’m going with White. Just because its different. Seriously, how many phones are right white? I used to have a white pair of Oakley sunglasses – loved them, until they broke.

    Something about white and electronic devices doesn’t mix.

    Black, cause it’s cheaper. It’s more fingerprint prone, but I’ll be using a case with it so that shouldn’t matter much.

    BTW, what color is BG getting?

    I’ve always preferred white myself. Not into black although black colored objects are in over-abundance here in the Long Beach area.

    @blackula

    i agree, bad phone quality in the PAST. but apparently this is one of the big improvements apple has worked on. Apparently, the plastic back opposed to the original aluminum back allows for better reception for the antenna.

    I’m going Black. It’s going in a case anyway so I’m not worried about finger prints. If I get a clear case the black peeking out would look better in my opinion.
    Will the white finish turn yellow after awhile? I’ve heard some people say maybe burn marks?
