a100 and built in flash..

It has been mentioned briefly before but not yet confirmed from anyone... The flash on the a100 looks golden instead of white as on all other cameras. I has been suggested that this could be to match the colour of the flash to sunlight to make it more suitable as a fill-flash.

Now that more and more people are getting the cameras, can anyone confirm this, please.

Thanks, but I was thinking confirmation in terms of photos taken with the a100, not of it...

Something along the lines of: Portrait in bright sunlight with face half in sun half in shadow (sunlight coming from the side) and with fill-flash enabled to soften the shadows. WB should probably be set to daylight, but I'm unsure if it makes any difference here.
