White iPhone 4 Shipping Early Next Month

Appleinsider reports on comments from Concord Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who is claiming that Apple’s manufacturing partners at last begin ramping up for production of the white iPhone 4 sometime this month, with a launch date expected in early April.

Also, surprisingly, the source says that production will be limited to the GSM version of the phone and will not include Verizon’s CDMA compatible iPhone, which seems quite odd to me.

Apple is expected to begin production of its long-awaited iPhone 4 sometime this month, with shipments no later than early April, according to one analyst’s checks.
Manufacturers will initiate production of the GSM-based iPhone 4 version in white enclosures and begin dispatching them to Apple ahead of general availability planned for next month, Concord Securities Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo told AppleInsider. Apple has made changes the “film material to solve the full-lamination problem that [was] the reason why white iPhones [were] delayed,” he added

It would be nice to see the white iPhone 4 finally make it to market, but one thing’s for certain….it’ll be barely on the market 2 or 3 months before Apple announce the iPhone 5.
The white iPhone was originally meant to be released shortly after the black iPhone 4, but that release date was pushed back to the end of the year, and then once again to spring. There was a time when we thought all was lost for the white iPhone 4, but it appears that we may be wrong.
However do you think the white iPhone 4 will sell well if it is released, since it’s so near the iPhone 5?
