Apple delays White iPhone 4.

Apple says that “White models of Apple’s new iPhone® 4 have continued to be more challenging to manufacture” than they originally expected. Previously at July 16 Press Conference, Steve Jobs said that the White iPhone 4 would be available sometimes late July 2010.

What is really happening with the White iPhone 4?

John Gruber summed it up in one sentence:

Every smartphone maker has trouble manufacturing white ones. It’s an industry-wide problem.

Good one, John!

Is this really a “bad news” for Apple?

I know there are people who are holding off buying iPhone 4 because they want the White one. Apple should have just canceled the White iPhone 4 and make them buy the “more popular” iPhone 4 black models.

What in the world is Apple saying?

The availability of the more popular iPhone 4 black models is not affected.

Is this some kind of joke?

Apple, you can not say that iPhone 4 black is the more popular model. Because no one can order the White iPhone 4. Not since the pre-order day, not since the release day and certainly not since you have the statement today.

I have no idea what is really going on with the White iPhone 4 manufacturing problem. I am not a telepath. My telepath on staff is currently on a vacation and demanding not to be disturbed. This I know for sure, I am one of the people who are holding off buying an iPhone 4 because I want the White one. It seems that I’ll be using more of my Nexus One, thanks t the Wi-Fi Hotspot feature in Android 2.2 Froyo. (Moment of silence to Google Nexus One Web Store)

Now, it’s time to write a silly email to Steve Jobs.

In the mind of many people in the world, July 16th is an important date in the History of the World. It is definitely not about some nobody’s birthday, but it is the launch date for Apollo 11 Mission. The Mission that landed Man on the Moon!

Neil Armstrong, Michael Collins and Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin blasted off the Earth to the Moon.

July 20th, 1969
Neil Armstrong and “Buzz” Aldrin became the first and second human to step on The Moon, respectively.

These Days
Nut jobs still believe that Apollo 11 Mission was a hoax.

July 16th, 2010
Apple to hold a press conference, exposing the truth about Moon Landing Hoax. After all, it would be the one information that will take the attention away from the so called iPhone 4 Antenna Issue.
