Apple: White iPhone 4 'more challenging to manufacture than expected,' delayed

iPhone 4 Black and White

In a brief statement to the media this afternoon, Apple announced that the upcoming iPhone 4 in white will be delayed.

"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."

Apple's iPhone 4 will be available to those who did not pre-order the device on June 29, supply issues notwithstanding.
