5800 - which colour to go for?

Will be getting one, and playing with then selling again. So what colour do you think is best? I prefer blue, but I'll go with whatever has the better resale value.

Sadly I cannot seem to find decent pictures to compare just yet, but watch this space.

I will be getting one for the GF and she will definitely prefer red. I wonder whether it would be sickeningly cheesy if I get one in blue ? I'll have to make sure we don't use them in public at the same time I guess.

Strangely enough, the cases for the 5800 are already available, it seems that swapping them over may not be particularly complicated. 1. 2.

I guess that Pseudo's Pink one must be a one-off... ;)

Wasn't a black one also announced at one time? That would be my preference.

Yeah, me also but it's not an option on the Nokia webby. I can't see it coming out anytime soon either, at least not for UK.

Interesting ... almost x-press on by the looks of it. Can it really be that easy!?

Black is my preference too but choosing between the two available it would have to be blue.

Sp00k- you're a riot. You should take your little show on the road. :-)

Mine is blue- other than the blue stripe along the side of the devices it is pretty much black. You really have to look hard at the rest of the shell to notice that it's blue- it definitely looks black.

Obviously color is a personal preference- but if you're looking at resale value, I'd suggest the blue. From what I've been hearing, blue seems to be a much more popular color than the red.

FWIW- Maybe I missed it, but I've not heard of the thing being made available in black...?
