as much as i want the white bumper, i think i might give in and get the black one. i cant wait any longer and im going to my local apple store which is 2.5hrs away this weekend. i want this phone protected and want this bumper asap! hopefully they have some available. maybe by a miracle, they have white. we shall see.
I went to expensive route! Since i picked up my phone last thursday morning, I wanted to protect it no matter what, so I suckered myself into buying whatever was available that day, so I got my black! I can always return it, but maybe if the mood pleases I may switch between the two, you know?
I know i know, waste of money, but i'm sure there are many people that have multiple cases, some probably change daily to fit their mood or wardrobe? Am i right?
I still believe that all the other pastel coloured bumpers look horrible on the iPhone. However the white looks amazing on the black. If I do get a bumper I will definitely consider the white after seeing these pics along with black. Also why did Apple not release a dark red bumper? Would look much better than the other colours they have now.
After waffling back and forth on getting a bumper I saw these pics and broke down and bought one. Thanks alot! 
On a side note Im thinking of getting the white iPhone 4 and would like the white bumper on it.

THe lighting i'm using is pure afternoon 4 o'clock light but with cellular blinds helping to filter the sun, so the light is softer. Its amazing how the light at different times of day can dramatically affect the picture and mood.
I just got back from the Altamonte Springs Florida apple store (Orlando area) and they got a shipment of White, Blue, and Black. When I got there at 3pm. They had just sold out of the white one. They had 3-4 blue ones. Tons of black bumpers available.
I got the blue one for myself and the black one to ship to my brother up in Maryland.
Just got home. Was about to put the blue one on my iPhone 4. Wife saw it and thought it looked girly so she took it for herself.
I didn't want the black one at all. I still have the orange and green ones on order to ship July 16th.
I guess I will live with my cheap eBay silicone iPhone 4 case for two more weeks.
But I would rather protect my wife iPhone since she drops her more than me.
Wow. This setup brings back nostalgia for my 2G iPhone with the white Incase Slider. Even if it ships in 3 weeks, I may have to order and wait. I really liked how my very first iPhone looked in that case and I'm sure my iPhone 4 will look even better.
I ordered a white bumper from the apple/uk store 2 days ago, it said at the time it would take 3 weeks to ship but I've just had my shipping confirmation today! ...
Shame I won't have my iPhone until at least the 14th

Wow something is messed up. I ordered a white bumper on 6/29 and it still hasn't shipped.
Yes - it also upsets me when I paid for it on the 18th and they are now showing up in Apple stores. WTF - I paid for mine already - I should get first dibs!
The sale page still has a 3 weeks shipping timeframe. Are you in the US or UK? Me and other guy above both ordered from the UK online store.
I didnt expect it to be sooner than 3 weeks, but they sent me a confirmation that the bumper had shipped within 3 hours of ordering it today.

same here, myn came today.
Although not sure if i will use it yet, as my Zagg IS has started to peel already and it now looks rubbish.
Not sure if i should take it off, put my bumper on and hope i dont scratch the back.

Go on ebay and order the SGP Steinheil EX ultra crystal or EX ultra fine protection kit from SGP's ebay store. These guys make the best screen shields so you can put any case onto the phone without them bubbling up. I used them for my 3GS and they are awesome.
I prefer this to Zagg shields because it doesn't require you to use any liquid to stick the shield down. I dont trust any watery fluids near my £600 phone
In the box you get a screen shield for the back and the front and you get protective film for the stainless steel too.

No, I'm in the U.S. But they're all being made in China so why wouldn't they send them out based on when your order is placed, regardless of your country.
I've never had an Apple product shipped to me from China directly. Every product I've bought has been shipped from Cork, Ireland. iMac, iPods, cases everything.
Not sure where the bumper is being shipped from.
