Here is what I got from the Support email:
The 1GB version of the Sansa Clip is expected to be made available this month however the 2GB version is estimated to be available on December. Of course, the release of the 2GB is just an estimate. If we can release it in the market on an earlier date, we have no reasons to hold it back.
The means the color versions of the clip will most likely not be out until Christmas season.
