I got it too. Got black to match by black video IPOD. Didn't see the point of getting white when all my IPOD accessories (headphones etc are black). Might as well stick with a theme. I can see I am going to go nuts wiping away the finger prints.

White turns yellow? Whose? Who's been leaving their sensitive electronic devices in the sun?

I mean the buttons turn yellow with finger grease. The Nunchuk joystick does the same thing.

The oil from your fingertips leaves very visible marks on the shiny black surface.

Exactly why I bought a white one.
