Remains of the Day: White wedding

27.04.2011
So, how hard was it to produce the white iPhone 4? (No that's not the setup for a joke). Phil Schiller and Steve Jobs dish on the elusive version of Apple's iconic device. Elsewhere, T-Mobile puts its money where its smartphone is, and one Apple exec gets a heck of a payday. The remainders for Wednesday, April 27, 2011 are always a bridesmaid, never a bride.

In an interview with All Things Digital's Ina Fried, Messrs. Schiller and Jobs talked about the challenges of building a white iPhone 4. "It's not as simple as making something white," said Schiller. "There's a lot more that goes into both the material science of it--how it holds up over time...but also in how it all works with the sensors." These are also important factors to consider next time you decide to paint your house.

Tell me, Mr. Jobs...are you a man? Because T-Mobile says it'll pay out one dollars to anyone who can prove that their iPhone 4 outpaces T-Mobile's Galaxy S 4G smartphone. Of course, the carrier is specifically referring to download speed and is only holding the competition in 10 retail stores in the Seattle area, where I'm sure they haven't tested the respective AT&T and T-Mobile signals. Let's go double-or-nothing, T-Mobile: will you give me if I prove that your Galaxy S 4G is not faster than my iPhone 4 at?
