silver. Doesn't get as dirty as white, nor as thumb-smudged as black (or graphite)...

Graphite gray for me, like the Kindle.
I had a red PRS600, a silver Palm, a white Ipad, a black iTouch. I prefer the color and finish of the Kindle. If it only had a better design ...

It should be pink, blue, yellow, green, orange, red, and white, of course!

My grey Kindle-3 looks nice, but like a dark colored car (or a frickin computer keyboard!), I'm constantly wiping the dust from it. White and light silver/grey show very little dirt, so that's for me. You can go for months without washing a light silver car and no one notices!

Anybody remember the good old days when computer keyboards were white with big black letters that you could see with the aid of nothing more than the light from your monitor?

also a case should end your dust problem if you were so inclined.

i thought white is the best looking color but for pure utility nothing beats graphite. it melts away while reading, really.

Only if I never actually open it to read. And I do have a cover.

I voted black, though I'd be quite happy with graphite gray.
