"Soft" steel or white appliances?

We are in the process of a kitchen remodel. We have installed new granite countertops (blacks, browns, tans, etc) and new porcelain tile (very light tan with some alabaster swirling). We are pricing all new appliances but can't decide on whether to go with the "soft" stainless (which is absolutely amazing and doesn't show fingerprints at all) or with white. I should say at this point that our cabinets are the inexpensive ones installed when the home was built (light oak with white fronts) but we can't afford to have those replaced at this time. Any suggestions or thoughts?
