Maybe it's the way I read it, perhaps the way you intended ppl to read it, but I seriously laughed out loud at this. And I'm in school's silent study room.

White iPhone 4 Canceled?

I just realised that they look good on Apple's website, that's all. It's a shame that you can't drop it, can't put it close to your face and can't put your fingers anywhere on it without putting a condom on the handset.

Black would show through and make grey. They should use a light grey reflective reverse coating... bet they didn't try that one.
This just in...
Apple reaffirms its commitment to product quality by refusing to release sub-standard gear. Some endusers too stupid to appreciate the gesture.;-)

They worked their butts off to cancel the white iPhone

Hey, captain genius! WRONG. Proximity sensor is a hardware bug, existing in my iPhone (along with countless others) under iOS 4.1.
I like mine.
No issues with discoloration. It doesn't physically feel any different than a black one.
When you have the flash on, it lights up the back panel due to light leakage, but it doesn't affect the pictures at all.
Share purchase location. Now.
They can just sell a white case for the iPhone 4. You can buy the iPhone 4 in any color but it has to be black.
Actually wasn't aimed at you as was trawling through the the thread and it was everywhere. Pure coincidence that you'd posted that just before mine went up.
Uptight? No, just a bit tired of seeing it repeated ad nauseam.
I keep my phone in a case. Use it often actually. In fact, when the 3G first came out, I bought it, and it's as good now as it was then. No scratches, cracks, or anything. Then when the 4 came out, I upgraded. Since then, same thing; no scratches, or issues. Never experienced the "Antenna" issue. Lastly, I guess my hands are clean, and free of 'fluids". I clean the screen off every now/then, but you'll get that with any/all touch screens, not just the iPhone.
If you don't like them, don't use them. I somehow see you with one of those cool flip phones, with big numbers, and rubber bumpers...what do they call those?? Oh ya!!!! A Jitterbug....

I'm gonna say it right here.
You're a retard if you pay over $200 for a White iPhone conversion kit.
That's the price of the entire phone for Christ's sake.

Its even funnier when you think that a few years ago Apple pretty much invented the idea of electronics being white as opposed to the standard black/grey of the time.

You're imagining it. It was fixed with 4.1 for me, so I don't see how your case should be any different. It was even in the update notes. Nice try anyway.

We are talking about around 16 years ago. Anyway, then please, ignore the comment above.
The heavily subsidized price after signing a lengthy and expensive cell provider contract, yes.
Elsewhere in the civilized world of open networks, the SIM-free iPhone 4 runs between $700-900
That's the first time I've heard that said having read through approximately 178 threads on the white iPhone 4 in the last 5 months.
No, really...
It's painted on the back off the glass.
If you applied a coat of black primer, you would end up with a black iPhone.
Good point; but then obvious rejoinder is to use white primer on the glass, let it dry, THEN add the black coat. The purpose is to get a black coat in addition to the visible white coat.
Maybe you haven't walked into a production studio and seen how employees who don't care to keep the equipment clean rub their grubby hands all over the macs...
I give an example of how washing your hands keeps your iStuff shiny and white. You come back with an example of how dirty hands make iStuff dirty. My original hypothesis is now a theory.
black iPhones were prone to cracks as well... I had a black 3G before going to the White 3GS they both had cracks in the same areas, near the headphone jack, volume controls and camera housing
That's not the fault of the manufacturer. Also, as someone with hyperhydrosis, I can tell you that the color of the keyboard does not matter.
It looks like there's something underhanded going on and probably some back door deal in the works. C'mon! How hard is it to produce a white iPhone? Give me a break! I'm not buying that "home button color match" excuse
really? then why are all the white iPhones seen in the wild AT&T GSM? riddle me that?
no this makes NO SENSE AT ALL...and besides once apple starts selling white phones you can just order the glass pannels from them to undercut any carrier colored exclusive....
