German Carriers Report White iPhone 4 Actually Due April 28th

130625 white iphone 4 be sold 2 500

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.

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.

Exactly. People should spend their money on whatever iOS product makes them happy. Why should people judge?

It amazes me that people come into this thread with replies such as "white is ugly, who cares etc". If you don't care about this, why bother replying?

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.
