No White iPhone 3Gs Available In UK On July 11th

Edward Kirk · July 8th, 2008, 08:55 PM

We have some bad news for our friends in the U.K. who were hoping to get one of the white iPhone 3Gs. O2 has revealed earlier that the white iPhone 3G will not be available from O2 on July 11th, but will "come later". In fact, Carphone Warehouse adds that "that the white 16GB model won’t be available at launch" anywhere in the UK. This makes us wonder if we'll be seeing the fabled white iPhone anywhere at launch, or for some time.

Supposedly, only Apple Stores in the US will get white iPhone 3Gs. The black looks a lot better, though

Does anyone have confirmation that the white iPhone will only be available in US Apple Stores? Will those waiting on line at AT&T stores have only black in store for them?

*Whew* Glad to be an American.

Hopefully this holds true though, I keep hearing contradicting rumors. I hope you are right.

So a MacAddict must buy a White iPhone to show their loyalty?

No, just a rabid Jonathan Ive fan.

I wish I knew in what proportions Apple is manufacturing the iphones. Seems they see much less of a demand for the White iPhone than the Black. And what capacity will be in highest demand? I'm thinking the 16 GB. I'd like to see a poll on the subject.
