Black all the way!

Just picked up a new Black Nano. Gotta say the color screen really pops out on the screen, and no worries about fingerprints, the face gets none, Only the silver casing on the back which is true for every ipod. Not too mention the black nano will cover up dirt and scratches better in my opinion.

I got the white 2GB one today. On the picture of apple web site, black one looks gorgeous but not in the store. You have to see it before you buy it

Your fingerprints must be composed differently than mine - I can see mine clear as day on the black face.

This is great advice. Thank god I didn't purchase online or else I would have gone with black. I am now the proud owner of a 4GB white nano.

The same thing is happening to alot of people, as online the black one looks nicer, but when you see the nano's in person the white sway's most people.....When i pick mine up this weekend i am going for a white, but if i wuldnt have seen them in the flesh i would have had my heart set on a black,

i heard...from ilounge among others

the black nicks much easier than the white doesn't wear as nicely !!


so i gots the white 4gig. my first iPod ever!!!!
 
I'm a doofus!

I voted for 'black' by mistake... I meant to vote for white to match my iBook and iMac. :eek: Anyway, I agree w/ previous posters-- you really should get a good look at them in store; I think the white is fantabulous!

And as an aside, I've got pretty small hands and the nano still felt maybe too small in mine. But I'm guessing it's one of those, 'you'll-get-used-to-it' situations.
 
I'm beginning to second guess my decision to get black. I knew it would show scratches easier but this is ridiculous. I used the cloth that came with my iMac to clean it and it scratched the bottom. The scratches are very small but they show up good with the black.

It's wrapped in plastic wrap until I can get my hands on some nano tubes in 4-6 weeks. :rolleyes:

I am gald that I helped
 
Okay so I checked out the white and black nano's at the regent street store and I agree,"in the flesh" white does it far more for me than black. Plus the fact that all accessories are white kind of swings it for me.

Ok guys, that did it 4 me,

The black's sleekness is really nice and everything, but at the end of the day, thats not whats gona be important... 4 ME. Im a CLEAN FREAK WITH ALL MY GADGETS, AND I THINK THE WHITE WOULD MAKE IT EASIER FOR ME.

So thanks for all your help guys :D

I'd say you really need the nano tubes, cuz with my PSP, its the exact same thing, u have all these littlee tiny scratches like nohting at all, but they annoy you like hell... i wouldve never had the patience to w8 4-6 weeks... lol

Black!

Though I would've prefered white, except for the grey click wheel. It looks out of place and annoys me. I liked the old school iPods which were all white, they looked much more stylish. The grey wheel just makes them look cheaper. That's why I think the black nano is better. ;)
