Macerkopf.de reports that they have received confirmation from Germany's 3 carriers that the white iPhone will launch there on April 28th, just like Japan. That leaves us wondering if the rest of the world will also need to wait until Thursday. Signs had pointed to today (April 27th) as the launch date for the white iPhone.
It's still a bit early in the day, but there's been no peep from Apple or its U.S. carrier partners about the launch. Typically, Apple's store will go down in order to update. At this point, it seems likely the worldwide launch is indeed April 28th, so one more day of White iPhone 4 anticipation.

The MacBook Air is Apple's most popular laptop – a thin, fanless machine that wields quiet power thanks to the efficiency of Apple silicon. While the M4 model isn't exactly old, attention is already turning to its successor.
Apple doesn't telegraph new product launches ahead of time, but we can draw a surprisingly clear picture of what to expect by looking at Apple's silicon roadmap,...

It's a morbid fascination -- like why a new coat of paint would convince anyone to buy 1 year old phone at full price when the new revision is a couple months away.
May, June, July, August, September + Low Stock month. More like 6 months don't you think!
I for one have a cracked and almost broken iPhone 3G. I will buy the white iPhone tomorrow because it's what I need now.
I won't buy it cause I like the black and it's not exactly cheap. But hey if you can afford it and you like it why shouldn't you buy it? Life is all about the small things that make you happy...
Well since it's now well into the afternoon in Europe and no Apple store updates whatsoever, it's looking more and more likely that the official release will not be today.
