The iPhone 4 is here officially people lined up outside of Apple stores last night so they could be one of the first to get an iPhone 4. Just a little ways from me there were 200 people waiting outside the Apple store at the Carousel Mall in Syracuse, NY waiting for their iPhone 4’s. I would bet that Verizon kicks its self for not getting the iPhone when they could have. The Droid X came out yesterday but there were no lines waiting to get a Droid X or really not much about it at all.

But I’m not here to talk about the Droid X I'm here to talk about the people who got in line at those Apple stores to get a white iPhone to find out that they didn’t have any and that they won’t have any white iPhones until the second half of July. I’m also here to talk about know issues of the black iPhone 4. Apple has come out with a statement saying “White models of Apple’s new iPhone® 4 have proven more challenging to manufacture than expected, and as a result they will not be available until the second half of July. The availability of the more popular iPhone 4 black models is not affected.”

Now I do have a question for Apple what’s so difficult about making a white iPhone it’s the same as the black one, it’s just white. Apple has not said at all what exactly is wrong with them in true Apple fashion (by really saying nothing at all). But the Black iPhone has problems of its own. Techcrunch has seen a number of hardware problems such as yellow dots in the corner of the screen, easily scratches, and poor to no reception if you touch the bezel of the phone. You can read the whole article at Techcruch.

The iPhone 4 seems to be the most hardware bugged iPhone ever, but people still want it and the bugs are not really a no go for those people. Apple has not said this but I ‘am sure that Apple in the next few days or weeks will offer some kind of swap for people that are affected by the hardware problems in the black iPhone 4.

Here is a video that Christine Chan made at the opening of the Los Cerritos Apple Store. Plus she was one of the lucky ones to get an iPhone 4 the other day so check at her unboxing at http://appleisms.com/. Enjoy!
