Good luck. I got one of the last few in New York City.
You might try for a used one, on Ebay or your local web classifieds...

Jigsaw have them in stock, according to their online listing.

I'd gladly trade my graphite for a white. I love the clean look.

Funny that a lot of people prefer the white keyboard. Personally I think it looks a lot nicer. My lab at school just got 35 Dual 1.2 G4 machines and they all came with the white pro keyboards. The instructor said last night that she likes them a lot more, because the room is always dark and it makes it easier for the students to type. One more thing, the Dual 1.25 screams. I'd never got to really use a DP machine and it blew me away...I can only imagine how fast the Dual G5's are.

I prefer the graphite.
and have purchased two back up graphite keyboards on ebay..with the silver cord..not the white cord...they were 25 bucks each on ebay.
I think the white cords are VERY annoying, and that the white keyboards look really bad when they get dirty after a few months.

Just wash your hands now and then, and don't eat Doritos while you work...

*washing hands*
*putting Doritos away from the keyboard*
ok... now I can type...
A big concern of mine is how the white plastic is going to age. If it discolors over time just from sunlite it could be a big issue down the road.
I would also definately recommend NOT smoking around white Macs. I purchased an older original Bondi Blue imac from someone who smoked and the clear plastic was turning brown on the shell of the imac and on the cords. They are litterally brown, its not too big of a deal on the clear metallic wires, but on white I imagine it would look awful. Not sure if its age, or the cig smoke.

Cheers guys. I found one at JIGSAW. It's on its way. I don't really like the white keyboard. The whole Apple and white plastic is too close to the Wintel beige box syndrome. Colur aside, I have tried both the new and the old white keyboards and IMHO the graphite keyboard has a better 'feel' to it and has a better build quality too.
