White iPhone 4G/HD In The Flesh
May 23rd
Hooboy. Chinese site Apple.pro has gotten their very lucky hands on my next obsession…, a white fronted iPhone. The frame looks to have a bit more chrome in it compared to subtle muted matte of the black, but that’s just based on appearances. While I’m sure the white version will be a hit amongst hipsters and young ladies alike, I can’t wait to jump aboard. One more photo after the jump.

Rumor: White iPhone HD Front Faceplate Leaked
May 19th
Now this is interesting: a Taiwanese site, Apple.pro, has gotten their hands on a white faceplate with the same shape and specs as the previously leaked iPhone HD faceplates that have been so ubiquitous in the last few months.
What we don’t know is whether this is real, but it would be a nice change to have the option of white-white, black-white, black-black and black-white. More choice is better, that’s what I say! What’s next, a pink iPhone?

Second iPhone HD Bought In Vietnam (With Video!)
May 12th
Gizmodo, eat your heart out. Looks like a man in Vietnam has an iPhone prototype of his own reportedly paying $4,000 for it. Sources are saying that it’s slightly different from the Gizmodo model since it, well, works. Cosmetically, the screws on the bottom end of the device have been hidden and the actual storage capacity is listed (instead of XXGB); suggesting a newer prototype version. Furthermore, everyone seems to be all atwitter over Apple’s A4 processor supposedly being in the device. The software on the device is inoperable and just runs something called “Bonfire.” So we cannot see the front facing camera in action, or the flash.
Photos, video and more after the break.
Here’s the translated text from the forum where the news broke:
IPhone second generation appeared in Vietnam 4
After appearing on Gizmodo, 4th-generation iPhone also appeared in Vietnam. The images from diendanapple.vn for similar machines MicroSIM iPad, a front camera for video phone, the back with flash photography at night and especially on the back is made of scratch-resistant sapphire. 16GB capacity is just not double up as a traditional 32GB Apple increased each year. Nonetheless, this 16GB figure shown here is almost complete rather than the more XXGB before. Subtle attempts to synthesize and search “hit area” in the phone as soon as possible. Sources said some machines are being offered for sale for about $ 4,000 in the U.S. black market.
It’s a little bit rough, but the point gets across. We can all be pretty sure that this is not some hoax, this is undeniably the next iPhone. I’d be lying if I said the design didn’t get me excited. It so very much does. That being said, seeing this stuff break early is a bit heart breaking. Like finding your birthday presents three months early in your parent’s closet. The whole ordeal is too soon and ruins the surprise.
