Good. The white iPhone is ugly as sin. (IMO) All of my iPhones have been black. Anyone know which color is more popular?

Where you been?

Perhaps it's because Apple is phasing out the white model to make room for the rainbow colored line of iPhones shipping next week (according to my ANALyst sources)!

Don't think Apple did this because of color, the picture more likely was used in some inappropriate way like it was too low quality, the size of picture wasn't realistic compared to hand or this device was jailbokren and there was Cydia installed :)

Michael, Great to see you back! And you uncovered a real issue. The "pressured startup" will get more pressure as will a number of other companies. The "smoking gun" is here on page 5: https://developer.apple.com/appstore/AppStoreMarketingGuidelines.pdf It is as clear as it gets for Apple: "Select the Apple product image that best fits your layout and open the file in Adobe Photoshop. Double-click the icon in the “Open to Replace Screen” layer (a Smart Object layer). A dialog directs you to edit the contents of the layer. Click OK. A new working window opens. Place the artwork for your application screen in the “Your Screen Here” window. Save it and close the window. The gray neutral screen image updates automatically. In the horizontal iPhone and iPod touch images, the reflection updates with your screen image. Do not alter the reflection layer." All of the product images are Black. And only Apple supplied images are considered compliant. The Guidelines have been updated after the white version of the iPhone 4 was made available. My source tells me that Apple has much more in mind about limiting use to just black. It may relate to a new product announcement that could in some way confuse the consumer...

Kinda-off-topic; I'm psyched to see @Arrington posting here:) Totally awesome Pando-ton win!

So the story is that Apple wants to enforce uniformity in their branding?

Only high-profile apps are gonna hear from Apple. When it does you can guarantee nobody is going to go public with the issue because they don't want to face any potential issues. With all do respect, the commenters here are likely small frys who wouldn't be noticed because their app isn't having 100k+/day of downloads.

It's probably because the images (screenshots) on the black iPhone is more contrasting than if you use the White model. (websites with mostly white background, etc.)

Bouygues Telecom is running huge ads on bus stops here in France with white iPhones. I wonder if they will be asked to take them down. http://www.pro.bouyguestelecom.fr/var/proca/storage/images/media/images/site-pro/hub/covers/cover-hub-iphone-4s-pour-professionnels/24910-1-fre-FR/cover-hub-iphone-4s-pour-professionnels.jpg

I doubt this was the case, they probably weren't using the images in a proper way.

Strangely, all press-kit photos they offer are of the white model. http://www.apple.com/pr/products/iphone/iphone.html

The Arrington approaches!
