I've decided that I like the color enough not to hide it, and I've ordered the pink zipper case that Sony Style has for it. It's guaranteed to draw a lot of comments but I'll deal with it.

I don't shop at close-out web sites and I've never paid any mind to how well a color does so I'd have no idea how well pink does. I also have no idea how well silver does but judging by how the 300, 600, and 350 have a silver option, and that the 950 is silver only, I'd have to think that it's popular.

I like pink electronics, I've just never been very comfortable with anyone seeing me with them, or even admitting to liking the color, but I think that pre-ordering the pink 350 pushed me over the edge into not caring anymore.

So to answer your question "isn't it time for a new fad color?" No.
