Should there be multi-colored iPhones?

BEst way to have different colors would be to offer a BTO option that way they only make what is needed. And only do it after all launch demands have eased.
Not that hard to get a couple warranties in stock for each color once demand has settled with supply.
If one stops and thinks about all the other colored audio and other devices, it makes a lot of sense for Apple to offer iPhones in different colors. After all it's not like Apple could not afford to. Even if they did not sell that well, they simply pull them off the market. Nothing ventured nothing gained. Sometimes the most forward of companies can be pretty stodgy.
That's not the point however. People that want color, want an original Apple product.
That's one opinion, remember the iPhone sells in vast numbers.
I can tell you in no uncertain terms they would be very popular in Japan. I've been there on numerous occasions and seen what they do with their phones.
so are you saying millions of people have either not bought an iphone or bought another phone, because the iphone was not available in colors other than black or white?
I actually have a dayglo yellow otter box cover ( oh err misses!) which is great but it does tend to muffle video/voice recording which is not so groovy. When seen under black light (uv light) it goes a very dark red!
No, u are misquoting people.

More colors = more choices.
If color wasnt a factor, the iPhone would just remain black.
Cheaper for Apple anyway to produce just one color.
But the thing is that the White Iphone is extremely popular.
Making other colors available like in the iPods would increase the visibility, desire and brand profile of the iPhone.

Look at the trouble Apple had with the white phone. They're not going through all that for a color that will sell only a fraction of the black and white models.
Yes it's VERY hard to make different colour phones!
Why would anyone say no to choice? It's not like the black and white models are going to disappear if new colours are introduced. People like colours, just watch what clothes people wear. Big surprise, lot of clothes are non-black or white and especially accessories (which includes phones) tend to be very colourful. This cyan colour is just awesome IRL and in pictures and next iPhone should have it:

Phones are more complex than clothes... That's a very vague comparison.
