Posted by Arron on 28 Jul 2010 @ 4:47 PMWe’ve seen a bunch of rumors as to what might be the cause of the White version of the iPhone 4 having been delayed twice now. But today a new rumor joins the ranks. Light leakage.
According to MacRumors, who reports via Scott Moritz of TheStreet, the device may have been delayed again due to a “light leakage” issue Apple is investigating.
Apparently, the back light from the iPhone display screen is leaking out around the edges of the glass and seeping through the back of the white phone, according to a person familiar with the manufacturing process.
According to the source, the issue apparently stems from the opacity of the White fascia used on iPhone 4, allowing light to escape. Although as noted by MacRumors, the issue is far from exclusive to the iPhone 4, with the HTC EVO also experiencing minor light leakage.

Look no matter what Apple does they will continue to dig their own grave. I mean it does have some great features but white or not the iPhone 4 has major design flaws. Design should never come before function and usability. Apple seems to have forgotten that.
I mean the iPhone 4 held the number one spot in the top ten ranking on pc world. Once Apple gave that press conference they took it down with out explanation. However, http://getyourgadgetsgoing.com/ took a look into it. The results are rather interesting.
