    Whose selling it in the US? I've been to a couple of online retailers suggested here and they seem to be only available in white. Mostly it's the AU and UK retailers who are offering it in black.

    Email the dealers and ask, and according to CharlieDigital whom recently bought a white w5f, the black w5f was avaliable from Geared2Play, perhaps email them.

    Thanks. I will. It's strange they don't leave a note about the blacks being available on their site, though. It seems that a lot of people would be interested in the blacks vs. whites for smudge/stain/dust and dirt issues.
