“Apple Inc said on Tuesday that it would delay release of its eagerly anticipated white iPhone again, this time until next spring,” Gabriel Madway reports for Reuters.
“The latest version of the popular handset, the iPhone 4, was released in June, but the white model was delayed first to July, then to the end of the year and now to early next year,” Madway reports. “‘We’re sorry to disappoint customers waiting for the white iPhone again,’ Apple spokeswoman Trudy Muller. She declined to explain the delay.”
Madway reports, “Apple has never said exactly why the white iPhone has been so troublesome to produce. The company has only said the white model was ‘more challenging to manufacture than we originally expected.'”

MacDailyNews Take: By the time it’s ready, nobody will want it.
[Thanks to MacDailyNews Reader “Lynn W.” for the heads up.]

I disagree MDN. My wife has White 3G. She wants white iPhone4. Told her today about Spring delay and offered to get her black one with white case or bumper or anything else. She said no thank you. She wants the white one.

Well, that makes choosing a cell phone company a Blanck and White issue.
The Evil ATT or Hero Verizon…… Or is it the reverse! Damn.

Why don’t they just say it’ll be available when iPhone 5 comes out? Oh yeah, because iPhone 5 isn’t supposed to exist until Jobs dramatically reveals it in June to everyone’s surprise. </sarcasm>

Reminds me of what Henry Ford said: “You can have any color – as long as it’s black.”

I am bitterly disappointed over this news. I am currently using a white 3GS which I am very happy with. Quite frankly, I prefer the present design than that of the Black iPhone 4 which my husband has. Unfortunately, the iPhone 4 has features which I do like so I will wait patiently.

@MDN. LOL

This time, MDN’s take couldn’t be more wrong.
The delay will only increase desire. When the white model finally appears, people will be having gunfights in the queues at Apple Stores.
Spring ends on June 20. Sounds like iPhone 5 to me…

Only because by then, everyone will be anticipating the iPhone 5G.
At some point, the best thing for apple to do is just give up on it.

You’re a lucky man. It would appear that your wife is picky about her taste and doesn’t like to settle for what she considers a second best. She would rather wait it out. She picked you.
