White Apple iPhone 4 to be released on July 30th

Still facing antenna issue, Apple delays the release date of the white Apple iPhone4 and unveils details of its free case program.

“White models of Apple’s new iPhone have continued to be more challenging to manufacture than we originally expected, and as a result they will not be available until later this year.” Apple announced in a statement.

“The availability of the more popular iPhone 4 black models is not affected.”

Meanwhile, to be able to get the iPhone 4 bumper or case giveaway, you have to download an iPhone 4 Case Program app from the App Store and launch the app on your phone using your iTunes Store account or Apple ID.

Then you select your bumper or case. Apple will check the “IMEI” (International Mobile Equipment Identity) and serial number to verify you have an iPhone 4.

You can choose from a wide range of cases from Incase, Belkin, Griffin and Speck, the cases being shipped in 3 to 5 weeks.

For those who purchased iPhone 4 before July 23, they need to apply no later than August 22. To qualify for the program you must purchase your iPhone 4 by September 30, 2010.

As announced, Apple expects the bumper/case giveaway program to cost the company about $175 million.
