Ok so I want the white 32GB iPhone 4, but I got the black for now. The question i have is what are the rules in terms of exchanging for the white once it is available? I heard about a restocking fee which i dont mind, but can i use my black iPhone 4 until the white is out and then exchange it for it?
 
I really hope that the white iPhone isn't available until after 30 days from June 24th. I'm waiting for white and I know a lot of people who got screwed out of preordering black because there are people preordering black just to exchange it. Instant gratification = pretty selfish in this scenario. My 2 cents.
 
If you order it from the Apple Online Store, can you return it to a physical Apple Store? I'd like to do this if the white version comes out within the 30 day exchange period. I guess a lot of people will try if they can.
 
Yeah I know it's kinda selfish but apple is kinda responsible too. I'll live if I don't get it but I'd like to exchange for it.

Nope , If you order it from the online store it has to be returned there.

Unfortunately, no. I tried that with the 3GS when I wanted to try a different color. They told me that I would have to actually send it back and then they'd send me a new one.
 
According to that ATT press release from the 14th, the iphone will not be available in white until late summer. I don't exactly know what their definition of late summer is, but it is more than likely going to be longer than 30 days.
