Just out of curiosity, what exactly is the advantage of the limited edition google I/O version today? I've been using it for the past few days to compare against the retail one.

1) Retail version is out, and readily available at any store for purchasing

2) You can root the retail version

3) It appears that the retail version is more stable (my LE I/O has crashed 3 times already and had to do a full restore once because it was stuck in endless boot)

4) The retail version actually got the TouchWiz update (I suppose this could be a pro or con depending on whether or not you like the update)

So am I correct in that the only advantage is the really cool android white design for the back or am I missing something?

That, they were "free" and you were able to get them before the retail version was released. Beyond that I'm unaware of any advantages.

Advantage- They are limited!
