It was fun, too. Seeing the faces when you offer them umbrellas, etc.

I expect that for some while we will have both available. I really
wouldn't wait for the whites to be sold out. (Well, maybe someone who
wants a black one buys all white ones then so someone will start
producing the black ones. ;-) But I think in the meanwhile there's
quite some demand for the black ones while the market for the white
ones is quite saturated.
