Pocket-Lint shared an elevator ride with the owner of a white iPhone 4 at a press event in New York City, and learned some interesting information along the way.
The owner of the device, who didn't want to be identified, said Apple headquarters is swimming with white iPhone and that he got the hook-up from a friend of his.
Well, according to our jacket wearing gent, Apple is having trouble getting its two suppliers in the Far East to match the white used in the manufacturing of the parts. The white home button colour doesn't match the white front face plate colour, it turns out.
Apple being the perfectionist that it is, isn't happy with this and therefore isn't happy to sell it to the general public, supposedly.
This same issue was hinted at back in July.
