Apple set to unveil white iPhone … tomorrow!

Apple Inc. (AAPL) announced today that the elusive white iPhone 4 will be available for sale beginning tomorrow.
The white counterpart will be available for a suggested retail price of $199 for the 16GB model and $299 for the 32GB model with a new two-year agreement through Apple’s online store, at Apple’s retail stores, AT&T Mobility (T) and Verizon Wireless (VZ) retail stores and select Apple authorized resellers.
After a 10-month wait, whispers of the debut of the fabled white version circled the Web earlier this month. The vanilla model was a long-time coming after the launch of the iPhone 4 in June, when Apple confirmed a delay on the white model due to unspecified manufacturing problems.
Sources attributed the delay to paint that peeled when heat was applied to the device and complications with a sensor.
Whatever the reason, white continues as a popular color for Apple since the launch of the company’s first iPod in 2001, The iPhone 3GS is still offered in white along with its tablet counterpart, the iPad 2.
“The white iPhone 4 has finally arrived and it’s beautiful,” gushed Philip Schiller, Apple’s SVP of worldwide product marketing. “We appreciate everyone who has waited patiently while we’ve worked to get every detail right.”
In addition to the domestic availability tomorrow, Apple said the device will also launch in Austria, Australia, Belgium, Canada, China, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Luxembourg, Macau, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Singapore, South Korea, Spain, Switzerland, Sweden, Taiwan, Thailand, and the United Kingdom, and in many more countries around the world soon.
The launch of the white iPhone 4 could relieve some pressure from Apple, which is reportedly set to break from its annual revision of the iconic handset in the June timeframe by pushing back its next iteration until later this year.
