Question Steel Silver or Solid Black?

What option will you buy or prefer?

Im torn between em but I have placed a pre-order for a Steel Silver.

Pls submit your pros and cons about the color options.

Silver seem more less likely to show grease and fingerprints and it is S.E.X.1

I loved the black one until I saw the silver keyboard, so I went for the silver one until I saw the black front buttons.
Now I don't know which one I shall pick

Cool Steel Silver.. but...

Few months ago I prefered Solid Black version. But now I'm falling in love with Steel Silver!!! Every day more and more!!!
... but shops in CZ booking in advance only black version and I'm affraid there will be no silver version at the moment of Xperia launch ... but I won't wait for silver one! I must have the XPERIA ASAP!!!

PS: Is there anyone who knows something about Steel Silver? There is no Steel Silver XPERIA in tech. specs. on most SE websites...

Will definitely go for the silver. I do not really like the colour black. And I actually when and g-mask my hermes(dopod838 pro) white.

Would love it if there's a white xperia, that would be even more SEX1.

im pretty sure we could replace the keyboard in the future.
im looking forward to replace the silver keyboard with black one.

The black version looks great, but the silver keyboard ruined it indeed.

I am almost certain I am going to purchase this phone, through Sony Style USA when I visit Las Vegas on the 18th of December (through to the 22nd)...Now I know Sony Style USA only sells the Silver one now (so far) and I believe BB has the Black one or something like that, but I wanted your opinion about which one do you think is better.

IMO they both have their pros and cons, but I want to hear more opinions if you dont mind
