Knowing our luck once the white ones ARE available they will be laced with Chinese arsenic dust in the white plastic. :rolleyes:
 
This is terrible. I had originally wanted the black but the white won me over at the last minute, and now THIS? Ugh. :mad:
 
Holding off, because this is ****ing inexcusable. Seriously, I cannot think of a single reason that there would be a constraint on the white rather than the black (since the black iPhone 4's use a new front/back piece anyway, it's all new material). F*** this s***.
 
This is completely unexcusable of Apple.. The white iPhone should not have even been shown at WWDC. I am ashamed I thought the ATT rumor was fake earlier because Apple would never drop the ball like that. :mad:
 
Yeah, I'm pretty peeved. On the one hand, I just sold my old phone to pay for this one, and I sort of NEED one sooner rather than later. I'd hate to have to way 2, 3 months for the white one. But I really, really want white.
 
Another Apple F-Up: The colored bumpers "ship by July 2nd"...

Give me a break Apple. How can you not be more prepared?!

I should have been able to order my white iPhone 4 and whatever color bumpers, to be delivered on June 24th. I don't feel like I'm asking too much here.

This same thing happened with the iPad case. People want a case with their new device, not a week or two or 3 later!

They should have mentioned they wouldn't be available at launch at the keynote.
 
Sadly Apple routinely pulls this kind of crap. The worse part is I will forgive them and move on. I have no other choice. I have invested in too many apps that I can't take to another phone even if I wanted to.
 
Really, what is up with Apple's manufacturing process lately? Stop worrying about a few FoxConn suicides and be a business; not a charity center.

Shortage of iPads, iPad case, and iPad accessories (camera connection kit, etc).
NO White iPhone 4, late shipping date on bumpers.

Seriously, this isn't some "Let's create a product that people really want, that is in high demand for a few months," this is "We've launched products with all intentions of fulfilling our customer's needs, and then totally dropped the ball and won't even give an estimate on the ETA of a product we unveiled 7 days ago!"

****ing terrible.

You got that Freaking right. Buuuuulllllshiiit.
 
Guys, calm down. You can probably buy a white enclosure later and swap it out.
 
ive already sold my 3GS in hopes of ordering the white version and having it by the 24th. Im very pissed at the moment and im just about to call it a night and go to bed. Seriously, Apple really F***KED up and there are going to be very angry customers.
 
Just bought a new Xbox 360 Slim off Amazon instead. Thanks Apple. I'll have more fun now.
 
worst part is, it's not like you can sell it and switch since it's using your upgrade, and those people that sold there phone are up a creek without a paddle if they want white.
 
Chill the F*** out would you! Apple didn't promise anything to anyone. I too am holding out for the white but you know what - my life isn't going to end if I don't get one on launch day. If there is a massive demand (which is pretty certain), it is much easier to just keep rolling one product off the lines than two. Simple rule of production.
So before you run out onto the streets burning effigies of Steve Jobs, just think about what you are getting so wound up about and be thankful you are lucky enough to have the option of buying ANY phone.

Sermon over.

Give me my damn white iPhone.
