I don't think buyers had much choice in colors. We're a dev shop and we couldn't get basic silver / grey devices with the specs we wanted. All they had was gold or pink.

Um, what? You can order whatever color you would like:

When we need a device, we just walk into the store. We don't order online and wait around. To be fair, it was ATT & Best Buy where I ran into the limited colors, but that doesn't change the validity of my experience.

It doesn't change your experience but it might change the applicability - it could just as easily be an indicator of ATT & Best Buy's inventory policy.

OK, but that doesn't change the fact that a lot of people do choose a color they want.
