[Merged] iPhone 4 pre-order only available in black / not available in white

If it was September, that would be absolutely rotten. I don't think it will be August, either, unless Apple makes another announcement to delay it again. They said July, it will be available sometime this month.
I was in an Apple Store today, just asking about the iPhone in general (every model was out of stock). He said that my best bet was to show up before 8 a.m. on July 25, because they would be open from 8-12 that day and would definitely have stock.
He did not say anything about the white iPhone being available that day, but it seems to me that Apple is trying to drum up interest for a second launch day-type atmosphere, so it would make sense that the white ones would be available for the first time that day.

The only time I ever think about how many bars I have is when I'm reading these forums. My iPhone 4 gets great reception and I have yet to drop a call. I don't use a case and I don't deliberately not touch the bottom corner.

No need for that. If you're that unhappy with the iphone 4, an iphone 3GS running iOS 4 is a pretty awesome phone.
First off, I'm not a hobo, I was having a bad day. Secondly, you promised not to tell people about the urination...
it's weird to me that they haven't even allowed preorders for it yet if it really is coming out in the next 2 weeks
Every time I walk past a phone shop I am so near to fecking it all and signing up for the black but I would kick my own arse when the white comes out so I'm holding out. Not easy though when I see FB friends posting their Incredibooth pics

It's so beautiful. Definitely worth the wait. <3

I was at the movies getting ready to watch Despicable Me (it was great, btw) and I was playing with my iPhone 4. Next thing I know the couple next to me starts taking pictures with this really really bright flash. I was like "what the hell!"
Then I was like, they must also have an iPhone 4, as well. The lady couldn't stop playing with the thing, even as the movie played. I usually become really perturbed by this sorta behavior, but I couldn't blame her, in this instance.
But I digress.
These three guys sit in front of me. I look up from my plain ol' black phone and see the middle guy holding a WHITE iPHONE 4. I couldn't believe it. I woulda stared more, but it was only a different colored iPhone 4. No idea how he got it. Didn't ask. It looks NICE, though.

You and your iPhone 4, along with someone next to you and their iPhone 4 and some random guy in front of you happens to have a white iphone 4 all packed in this theater, who knows where. Right. The odds are better for someone to get struck by lightning.
Thanks for sharing though.
You had your iPhone and couldn't take a picture of this "supposed" white iPhone 4?
He might not be lying. I mean he could of bought all of the OEM White iPhone 4 parts online and assembled it? I see a two-tone iPhone 4 on sale on eBay. If people want an iPhone 4 White OEM right now, it could easily be done, but would costs a lot more than the $199.99-$299.99 someone would pay at Apple or AT&T or other retailers.
I'm always pretty reserved at the movies. I like to think us courteous types are all the same. I has a pretty good look at it. Unfortunately, I couldn't see the back, but I don't think someone would take the front off and risk ruining their phone just to swap colors. I don't know. I saw a white cover clear as day, I do know. And it had the visible sensor bar and everything.
Nothing to prove, however. Believe what you may.
Also, why would I lie about seeing a different color iPhone? It's not like I'm telling you all I discovered Big Foot, killed him, and threw him in my fridge. Ridiculous! LOL.

Have you ever been to the movies in San Francisco? If so, have you ever noticed that about 50 percent of the audience has a smart phone with a touch screen? If so, have you then noticed that about 40 percent of said touch screen phones are iPhones? The theater was packed full of children and geeks just like me. On both sides of me were people with touch screen phones. In front, two friends were passing around a phone playing a game. A guy next to them had a Nexus One, the couple beside me an iPhone 4. The guys in front of me a white iPhone 4. I'm done.
