Apple has said today that they are delaying the release of the white iPhone 4 for the third time, this time pushing it all the way back until the Spring of 2011.
When they launched the iPhone 4 in June, Apple said it would have to delay the white model of the phone until July.
In July, the company delayed the smartphone until the end of the year.
“We’re sorry to disappoint customers waiting for the white iPhone again,” said Apple spokeswoman Trudy Muller.
The company neglected to give a reason for the delay except for saying the new white model is “more challenging to manufacture than we originally expected.”
Apple sold 14.1 million iPhones in the recent quarter, in its original black colorway.

AT&T has finally priced the Dell Streak mini-tablet, selling the 5-inch tablet/phone for $300 with two-year contract and $550 without.
It is still unclear when the Streak will hit retail stores, but Dell and AT&T are already accepting pre-orders on the device.
The first colorway available will be black with red.
Dell launched the tablet/phone in the UK in June, to mixed reviews.
The device has a 5-inch display, phone capabilities, browsing capability, runs the Android OS and has a 5MP camera.
Unfortunately, the device uses Android 1.6, the now obsolete software which has been replaced on most new Android devices by 2.1 Eclair. An update to Froyo 2.2 is promised for later in the year, however.

Sony Japan has announced the launch of a white slim PlayStation 3 model for the nation, dubbed the “Classic White” colorway.
The console will have a 160GB HDD, but Sony has promised larger capacity models for the future.
“Charcoal Black” was the current only colorway available for the slimmer models. Sony had offered a “Ceramic White” version of the “fat” PS3 in 2008.
Furthermore, Sony has launched a 320GB capacity slim PS3, but only in black.
Additionally, starting tomorrow, the 120GB model will move to “open price,” meaning retailers can price it at whatever they want.
The new consoles go on sale on July 29th, priced at the equivalent of $340 for the smaller HDD model and $400 for the larger capacity model.
