i am really concerned about fingerprints on the black one... white will be much better for that. So quickly it seems that people want to label the white one as feminine. I guess i have to be secure in my manhood if I go that way.

That will be a game time decision on the 11th when i finally get to hold them.
 
Either White or Black, you'll be trendy with any apple object for lots of years!
 
If I get one probably white, because I think it'll hold up (not literally, but they'll just be less visable) a lot better to casual scatches and fingerprints than the black one will.

I'm leaning towards getting the white one, to match my MacBook... ;)

There's a couple of issues though: I want to see them in person and compare, and also want to know the prices (for handset and contract) in Norway before I decide on anything...
 
i don't know. i'm leaning towards white, but i'll make my decision after i've actually seen them.
 
if i can upgrade my family plan i was intending on getting one of each for me and the girlfriend. hers would be white of course. She doesnt need 16GB but i figured resale value would be alot better on the 16GB down the road. Im really wishing that Apple would have gone with that rubberized plastic backing instead of glossy. As much as i liked the metal backing, i hated it more cause it was so slippery to hold

Do you really expect resale to be $100 higher for 16GB than for 8 GB? I don't know at all, but I'd guess both lose price enough in resale to make the difference less than $100.
 
8GB was enough for me last time round, but perhaps this time i will need a bit more, so if i do get a 16GB then i will get white!
 
I'm between black and white. Leaning 75% black and 25% white right now. I need to see the white in person before I make my final decision.
 
I cmon the white iPhones will be more rare and Stocked less. Plus will have a better resale value if u keep it nice and clean. I'll be going Gor white if they are available
