Apple Store is Down for maintenance as White iPhone 4 hopefuls hold their breath.

Update:
Apple Store Online is back up. Can’t tell what changes they made yet.

Late Saturday night Cupertino time, Apple Store Online was taken down for updates. As usual, those who care can only speculate what Apple would add to the store. Anecdotally, someone suggested that Apple would add the White iPhone 4 for order while extremely limited supplies last.

Good luck holding your breath.

Waiting for White iPhone 4 is just as good as waiting for official Adobe Flash on iOS devices.

iOS 4.2 beta 3 is also accompanied by iTunes 10.1 beta 2, available for Mac OS X and Windows (x86 and x64).
