    I'm going black myself; my current 3GS is black. It looks so much sleeker.
  • Not sure to be honest.I think the white one needs to be seen in the flesh where the black is a 100% starter for most people.

    Personally i'll probably go black.

    i do have a white 3gs but as you know its only white on the back-would the white all over be too much?

    i just looked on that erm auction site ( dont know if im alowed to say which one) well anyway the average a 16gb 3gs sold today was around 300-so unless everyone clocks tomorrow that all the prices are going to drop i should get a good price for mine


    fingers crossed

    Well, my "Operation iPhone 4" has started.

    My gym instructor has given me £150 cash already for my 16gb iPhone 3g (with another £50 on handover - he just didn't want to spend the money by mistake :)).

    I have sorted out my 12 month Simplicity Contract with UNLIMITED data, 600 mins, unlimited texts for £20/month - plus £100 credit on that from the current O2 Open offer.

    Now I just have to wait for my shiny new iPhone 4, to buy outright!

    In black I think for me :T

    Oh I fully expect it to cost about £500. But working it out, against doing a normal upgrade, having to be capped, and the rest, doing it this way is going to cost me approximately £740 rather than £880 over a two year period (taking into account how much I am getting for my 3g, any O2 Open that I can take advantage of, and guesstimating the iPhone to be around £200 on contract, £500 outright).

    Plus I will only be locked in for 12 months, on an unlimited data plan for £20, which should hopefully future-proof me :T

    Getting £200 so easily for my 16gb 3g (without the palaver of ebay, paying fees etc) was just a bonus :)
