Orange UK: No White iPhone 4 Until End Of 2010

Those eagerly awaiting the chance to make a mobile style statement with the white edition of Apple’s iPhone 4 might have to make it a Christmas stocking filler: phone network Orange says that it isn’t due until at least the end of 2010.

An e-mail recently sent to patient Apple fashionistas confirms the fact in no uncertain terms:

We wanted to let you know that there won’t be any white iPhone 4’s in the UK until the end of the year.
If you’re happy to wait another few months we’ll let you know as soon as they’re back in stock. Want an iPhone 4 now?

Alternatively, if you want it now, click here or visit your local Orange shop to get the iPhone 4 Black 16GB or 32GB today.

Best wishes
Orange

Whether they’re trying to sway those folk on the fence about signing up to Orange or are genuinely not expecting the device until the close of 2010 is unclear, but it marks further delays to the white iPhone 4′s troubled journey to market.

With Steve Jobs confirming that manufacturing the white iPhone 4 “continued to be more challenging to manufacture than we originally expected,” it seems that the only way to stand out from the iFlock in the immediate future is a bit of elbow grease and some replacement parts from China…
