Confused regarding iPad colors - what about the back?

[Goldinboy17]

Apple announced the iPad 2 would be in both black and white. Pictured on the front page you can see the bezel with both of these colors. However, what about the back of the iPad? Will the colors match the front or will we be stuck with the same (aluminum isn't it?) back?

The color is only on the front. They both have aluminum backs.

Yep, that what it looks like to me.

Do you think the 3g versions will have corresponding white/black plastic along the back where the 3g radio access is housed? ... or are we going to have a 'zebra' white ipad with a black stripe across the back

silver back on both. Pictures of back on www.apple.com, and engadget has tons of real photos of the white ipad 2, front and back.

Looks like there will be a black strip across the back just like the original iPad had.

No. Aluminum back on both white bezel and black bezel. Black stripe for 3G.

Is the Apple Logo white on the white version? I'm guessing it is still black since they would also want to do the font in white, which would not be very readable.

I am really liking the white version though

Doesn't look like it. http://www.engadget.com/2011/03/02/ipad-2-first-hands-on/

O'well. I was really hoping for a plain white front/back model.
