Best Buy lists white iPhone 4 with Feb 27 date
Best Buy today added to the speculation around a nearing white iPhone 4 street date with a listing for the color in its inventory system. Both 16GB and 32GB models have surfaced with an in-store date of February 27. MacRumors warns the dating is tentative and would put both on a Sunday, when neither Apple nor AT&T usually puts out iPhone models.
The American listing nonetheless comes on the heels of a Vodafone Germany inventory addition and lends support to notions that Apple's spring 2011 target may be the very end of winter rather than the iPhone 5 release.
A white iPhone 4 had originally been planned to go side-by-side with the black model but was delayed multiple times over what's now presumed to be coloring problems. Apple's glass back may be difficult to mate properly with a pure white color where earlier models were simple plastic.

hmm
shouldn't they skip directly to the iPhone 5 which should be release a mere 4 months later? Or should we take this as a sign that there won't be an iPhone 5 this summer?
