Like the rest of us you are probably thinking why on earth do we have to wait so long from the original release date for the same product but in a different colour. Not being technically minded myself i just cant see how it took a whole year from the original black iPhone 4 release date for the white version to be released.

Some pictures have been released of what appears to be a 4th or 5th generation iPod touch with a beautiful white finish. Seeing as they have now got this colour changing technique down to an art we should hopefully see black and white options on future releases.

Talking about the delay in the white iPhone 4, Apple’s Phil Schiller said -

It’s not as simple as making something white. There’s a lot more that goes into both the material science of it and how it holds up over time but also in how it all works with the sensors.

So if they managed to do it on the iPhone 4 surely we should see both black and white version of the eagerly anticipated iPhone 5 on release day.
