Cupertino, Calif. – Apple (NASD: AAPL) announced on Friday that it will
further delay the release of the white version of its iPhone 4 until later this
year, after pushing a planned June release until the second half of July. "White
models of Apple’s new iPhone 4 have continued to be more challenging to
manufacture than we originally expected, and as a result they will not be available
until later this year," the compay said in a statement.
"The
availability of the more popular iPhone 4 black models is not affected."
Apple released an almost identical statement on June 23, when it cited
difficulties in manufacturing for delaying the white iPhone 4’s release until
late July.
