Not only do I think the white does not look so good, and the white distracts from reading; but I've also worked in a plastic factory, and know that very few plastic factories are able to create a white plastic that remains white(it's very expensive).
Most white plastic turns yellow over time, while in the old days black plastic could turn blue, but nowadays with carbon black addition to plastic, they kind of eliminated the black issue!

If you want a device where the color looks exactly the same 5 years from now, you'd have to get another color than white!



page flip speed, anyone? Page flip speed?
which one is more expensive to produce ?? White or black (colorwise)
