White iPhone Delayed. Again.

white iphone4 White iPhone Delayed. Again.

At this point, you might as well just wait for the iPhone 5 if you’re holding out for a white iPhone. The phone that was originally supposed to launch with the black version in June was delayed first until July, then until year-end and now until next year. ‘Early’ next year is the official line that Apple’s giving. On the plus side, the way Apple is going, if the white iPhone ever does come out, it could be right in time for the annual iPhone update price drop.

Apple still hasn’t given a reason that the white knight is so hard to bring to market, but recent rumors indicated that Apple was having trouble matching the shades of white on components from different manufacturers. Meanwhile, we wait.

Judging by his endless supply of black turtlenecks, we knew Steve Jobs was no big fan of white, but this is getting kind of ridiculous. [via Reuters]

Apple TV Review: Is the Third Time the Charm?

While the original Apple TV had a few admirers among die-hard Apple fanatics and tinkerers, the company always considered the device to be a "hobby," and it never found mainstream success. The newest iteration, however, reflects Apple's first serious attempt to nail the living room media experience, and it's making a serious attempt at becoming a must-have accessory, thanks primarily to its support for Netflix Instant Streaming. This comes at a time when streaming video devices are starting to crowd the living room; with the user-friendly Roku, the much-hyped Boxee Box and several Google TV devices launching this fall, Apple has some heavy competition. Let's see if the Apple TV is up to the task.
