The only way I'd go with white is if there were NO borders at all around the screen. White borders are way too distracting for a video screen which is why the vast majority of tvs and monitors are black. I used to have a Sony Vega tv and found even the silver/grey borders distracting.
In the Apple ad I noticed they demo the white model against a white background and with the screen mostly white. Imagine a darker background while watching a movie where the white borders really stand out and think if you would like seeing that all the time. But to each his own.
I was going to go with just 16G but with the new retina display it seems another $100 for 32G might be justified. Besides, if you really have to store a large number of HD videos there's a streaming wifi 500g hard drive available. I've got tons of pics, music, and some vids stored on my iphone4 and it says I still have 20g free out of 32, so that was a waste. I might start using my iphone as a computer backup instead of the other way around.
