About 2 years back, August 24th 2002 (introduction of Jaguar) I was Apple store and bought my 10GB 2nd Gen iPod. I found it has a pinkish backlight. My friend's iPod has the normal blue backlight (his is 3G). But I heard somewhere that some people's were white like my 2G. Also heard/saw that the 4G's had a blue backlight, but one person said they are white, anyone know what is up with that? I want mine blue but how can I tell?

I think I remember someone saying it depended on how you ordered it. Like, they bought theirs over the net and it was a certain color than the ones bought at Apple Store.

thanks

I've either seen blue-ish, or clear.

Do a search for iPod backlight and you might find a few threads on this from when the last generation of iPods debuted. Some have blue backlights, while others have white... And I've never heard of "pinkish" backlights before. I think the consensus at the time is that it does indeed just depend on when your device was made.

Mine happens to be white, but the blue sounds cooler.
