As surprises go, this one isn't exactly up there with the Da Vinci Code or the twist at the end of Finding Nemo (spoiler: he's found), but a recent video of an AT&T lady unpacking iPhone boxes in preparation for their Friday release does contain the first ever sighting of the white iPhone 3G's packaging. And yes, as you might have expected, the box is white.
Question is, how many people want their iPhone 3G in white? The AT&T store in the video does seem to have far more black handsets, suggesting that Apple doesn't expect its paler version to be as popular. I'm throwing this one open to the comments; who is planning on buying a white iPhone 3G?

I am not 100% sure yet, but I believe I see a white 16GB iPhone in my pocket tomorrow morning.
All the cool kids are getting white!
I saw the Portuguese black one and it was smudgy as f*ck. I think black owners will wish they had white.
White might be nice, but it won’t make much of a difference to me. I’m going to cover it up with a silicon case anyway (the best way to protect your iphone!).
Oooh the shiny White iPhone 3G :D Definitely!
The reason the att store has more black than white could be the fact that the 8GB is only black. If they stack the 8 and 16 GB together you would have more black than white
