Without a doubt - GET WHITE. If you have any doubts about how they will hold up, go into an elotronics store and look at the ones on display. The black iPods look terrible after awhile - you can see every finger smudge and scratch much more clearly than on the white ones. Plus, all the accessories are white, and the black looks kind of dumb with them. The black also looks very plastic and cheap to me.

I got a black 30 because all of my previous ipods have been white (I have had them all) and most importantly on a side by side comparison the videos and picture look way better on the black. (notice tv's dont come in white very often, and silver ones generally have a large black border) and about the scratches, I put a psp screen protector on it.

I bought the black and waits for its delivery. I have a white 30g 3G with red lights, which still looks great and a 4g Click wheel whose grey colored wheel turned awful. I went for the black in hope that the wheel will not turn the same way, and wanted to go for a change.

Inconsciently I may have thought it was worthwhile to buy the black the same prize as the white one, as the black U2 iPod used to be the more expensive. This is really ridiculous I must confess..
