But then that was my first reaction to the Simple touch as well. Guess what? I now LOVE the Simple Touch and ut's form factor!
It was also my reaction to the white Nook HD. Guess what? I now love the loook of that device!
So it seems my first impressions don't last...
Agreed, first impressions are often wrong. I'm starting to come around on the white look as well from a purely aesthetic point of view.

But my main problem with a white bezel like this is practicality. How is it going to look after a few months -- after a vacation at the beach and countless times being tossed into a bag or backpack? Will it stain? Will it be easy to clean? Black hides a multitude of sins.

They should have at least given black as an option.
