You May Never See a White iPhone 4 !

We've really started to lose hope! White iPhone 4? You will never see a white iPhone 4 because Apple reportedly cancels the white iPhone 4 altogether, according to a new report from BGR. BGR’s source says that there will be another delay in March which would cause the release of the white iPhone to interfere with the release of iPhone 5.

Yesterday, Apple's App Store app was updated to allow reserving your white iPhone 4 but in the same moments Apple announced that the device would not be available until spring 2011. Today, the reports from BGR claims that you may never see a white iPhone 4. So, do you really care about having a white iPhone 4?

White iPhone 4 Delayed Until Spring 2011

Yesterday we informed you that you can start reserving your white iPhone 4 from the app store app on your device. Unfortunately, earlier today, we were shocked by a new report that a representitve from the Cupertion based company has informed Reuters that white iPhone 4 delayed until spring of 2011. That was really shocking!

(Reuters) - Apple Inc said on Tuesday that it would delay release of its eagerly anticipated white iPhone again, this time until next spring.

If you are a tech fan, you may know that this is the third delay for white iPhone 4, first when they launched it, second when Apple reported that it will be available later this year, and now we have to wait to the spring of 2011. This also indicates that all rumors about iPhone 5 in 2011 are killed now, what do you think?

iSeeU Brings FaceTime Video Calls to iPhone 3GS

Yes, you read it right! Apple provided the iPhone 4 with front face camera to allow video calling with other devices. Also, there's an endless list of apps that allows you to make video calls with some features on iPhone 4, the apps are also compatible with iPhone 3GS but it's very silly to make video calls without front camera.

Guess what? You can make FaceTime-like video calls on iPhone 3GS with a simple accessory provided by Korean company PLAYMASS. The idea is simple, it's about mounting a mirror on your cell phone, and you’ll be able to convert your back camera to rear-facing camera. Check out the charming video below for a quick demo:

The accessory is available on the official site for $24.95, they will be shipping this accessory later this month. Will you get it and cancel the idea of updating to iPhone 4? [via TiPb]

White iPhone 4 Spotted, Owner Explains Why You Can't Have One

If you’ve been waiting for a white iPhone 4, you’ll wait more. Today's reports from Pocket-lint shows a real white iPhone 4 spotted in New York. They spotted a reporter at a recent press event using his white iPhone 4. They went near to him and they asked about the way he got it, he answered that a friend of his at Apple HQ hooked him up with the device. Then, they asked him about the reason of delay.

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.

There have been a lot of reasons floating on the web as color issues and light leak. In my opinion, I don't think that this home button would take much. Well, I don't think that Apple would delay a device for months because of matching the color of a button. What do you think?

Limesn0w Unlock Tool Will Never be Real !

A few days ago we had hopes when we reported you about the Limesn0w unlock tool which was expected as a new surprise from Geohot to unlock basebands 05.14.02 and 02.10.04 on iPhone 3GS and iPhone 4G on iOS 4.1, but now Geohot cut in any doubt, when he announced that Limes0w unlock tool will never be real in his limesn0w.com website.

This will never be real. Media, understand it. ~geohot

So that, if you see any picture or video claiming the unlock of those basebands by limesn0w, they are completely fake.

We have no choice but waiting the new unlock from the Dev-team, for who don't know, the unlock for the above mentioned basebands will be released after iOS 4.2 official release by November.
