I have a white one but keep it in a black Switcheasy Capsul Rebel case...Haha

HAHA, I have the white as well in a white Switcheasy Capsul Rebel Case. Excellent case for the iPhone.

Guy I work with has a white as well (naked) all scuffed and marked up. Unless you are super careful I would def get a case for it. I never have a problem taking my phone out of the case to show it off (looking brand spanking new).

You can't go wrong with either color though, it is a matter of preference. Nobody that I know has a black one (go figure).
 
I have a white one. My friend has a black one. I don't even notice the difference unless I look to make sure I am using the right phone.

how bad is his marked up?
 
Just bought a white one.:)

However.... I also bought a Griffon case which spoils it a bit, but I'm tied into an 18-month contract so I figure I need to look after the phone!

I have the white one. I decided to go with it because I bought a white car recently.

To Apple users, white may be getting old, but it's making a big comeback everywhere else right now. 5 years ago nobody in their right mind wanted a white car, but now it's THE automotive color, the one used in all stylish car ads from Audi and other trendsetters.

The white surface looks great. My only (and minor) gripe is that the combo of white (back), black (front) and chrome looks a bit 'frankensteined', I think the front should have been white as well.
 
i have a white one just cuz it was the "rare" color. the only problem with white is that you'll notice it's associated to as female color.

walking around SF and in my home town. i've noticed that men have the black and women with the white. at my work almost all the men have the black phone and women with the white.

I don't think its a feminine color, it was just made that way in your situation by the majority of women buying the white one. If anything, white is more neutral -- I mean, you can't get anymore plain then white!

Yeah, white is the most neutral color there is (after all it's the end result of mixing the entire spectrum), but I've noticed that some people consider it a somewhat feminine color. 12-year-old males with three budding pubic hairs seem to have a problem with anything from white iPhones to white headphones on the iPod ("OMG that's so ghey!").
