WSJ: Apple confirms White iPhone 4 for spring

Posted: 14 Apr 2011 04:45 PM PDT

The mythological beast known as the White iPhone 4 has been confirmed by Apple for a spring 2011 release, according to the Wall Street Journal.

Although its report features no quotes or no statement from the Apple, the WSJ says Cupertino has affirmed that the epic delay will come to an end before summer rolls around.

"Customers who have waited nearly 10 months for the white version of the iPhone 4 won't have to wait much longer," read the WSJ article.

"Apple said Thursday the white iPhone was would be released in the spring, reiterating a projection the company made in October."

Within weeks?

The report comes just a day after Bloomberg's announcement that the white device will arrive "within a matter of weeks."

Apple has refused to commit beyond the spring time-frame mentioned in the WSJ report, which means we're still none-the-wiser.

Speculation is now rife that the iPhone 5 release might now be pushed back to later in 2011, although the smart money remains on the usual June/July launch schedule.

While the Wall Street Journal is a respected publication with a great track record on this type of thing, we'd say this stops short of official confirmation due to the lack of a statement from Apple itself.

There's not a lot left that would surprise us in this longest-running of tech sagas, so we'll believe it when we see the device in the hands of Apple fans.
