There was no queue snaking down Regent Street under the Royal Wedding bunting, no eager paps and news crews hanging out waiting for that first white iPhone 4 customer. But there were some eager beavers queueing ‘almost out the door’ at the Regent Street Apple Store
The people seem to have voted with their feet: a white colour variant of a nigh-on year-old phone just isn’t that exciting.Sales tally: one
One person was spotted buying the ethereal handset from Vodafone – but we weren’t allowed to speak to them so we don’t know how long he’d been waiting for it, or how excited he was to finally have that pearly white, non-peeling paint in his hands.
At the time of writing, the online Apple Store is also down, presumably updating with the white iPhone 4, although we’ll keep you posted on any other developments.
Why have we been so excited about this mythical handset? Why all the rumours? Did anyone ever actually care?
Here at TechRadar, we’ve posted over 10 news pieces about the absent handset, even non-tech news sources like Reuters and Bloomberg have been spinning stories out of it left right and centre.
Now it is here, the world seems, well, underwhelmed. Ah well, back to the iPhone5 rumours.
