I know pre-orders wouldn't allow for people to buy them... but I heard G1 Day you can get the White G1's at the T-Mobile Stores____Is this True :thinking:

what's up easily-dirtied phone? with what i do for a living added onto how often I use my phone....that white phone would develop into a brown or black one within 6 months of regular usage.

my first choice was the white one.. ): i think its so pretty cuz not lots of ppl actually have a white phone.

My work phone is a white xv6900 and the finish is really glossy so I don't really see it getting dirty or anything. Plus I keep the phone in it's little HTC pouch.

I'm sure the phone wouldn't turn a really noticable color for most normal usage. I know that it wouldn't if you washed it once a week or so. With my tech, I usually give it a good washdown and shine it up a few times a week just to keep it in good shape and also so I can notice any dings or whatnot so I can be sure to take better care of it.

I do to the same my electronics, does anyone have a hookup on white G1s?

freedomflyer · Oct 20, 2008

Yeah, I do! I can't find a link, but basically, all you gotta do is mask the buttons/screen with blue painting tape, and then go to Lowe's and buy some spray paint (preferably White). Then give it a good shake, and spray away.

Let it dry.

Wait an hour.

and VOILA! WHITE G1. I just pimped your G1 dawg, what you got to say?

the white one looks so Fisher-Price, and then you can't use your phone after labor day

Instead Ill just use a paintbrush and some ceiling paint.. and then Ill sell it to you for $225.75 :cool:

Phantom-
The funny part about that is that (assuming you did a decent job) i'd probably buy it off you. Maybe there are business opportunities we could discuss sometime?

According to Tmo reps in So Cal, the white ones will be available on Nov 10th.

I got the Black one... its my favorite of the 3 but color is all a matter of taste. It'll be interesting to see the differences of wear and tear after the white ones have been around for awhile.

In all the pics/vids I've seen the white one seems to look a little bit off-whitish and I didn't want to give off that "my phone has been sitting in the sun for a few days" look.

We'll see.
