Orange has not mentioned whether they have received any official word about the white iPhone 4 from Apple. Orange probably just wanted to remind those customers who were waiting for iPhone 4 and tell them that they have to wait a lo more to get their hands on one.

Even if Apple is able to solve whatever the manufacturing issue of white iPhone 4 is, its quantity would be a question. Like always, it would first launch in US and than in other countries so Orange must have some inside information about its supplies. If there is even a little further delay, the full international launch of white model could cross the first quarter of next year.

Apple never revealed the reason of delay. They only mentioned that the manufacturing issue is causing the delays. Sources claim that these delays are because they are having problems with the non-uniform application of the white paint which causes light leaks from the device’s backlight through its back and at seams.
