  4. Civicnv says:

    Does it get better reception

  5. HungWell says:

    In for two.

  6. keynatl says:

    Yep I just sold my car and everything in my house I just ordered a white iPhone with black diamonds

  7. Danny2582 says:

    How about ........... No

  8. Pn2bade says:

    What? Oh ya, I've like two or three of those.

  9. Joost says:

    At least the diamonds on the stainless steel siding will prevent your hand from contacting the antennas. :)

  10. Freiteez says:

    The Verizon phone is real! No one would pay that much to be on AT&T.

  11. Gino From The Bronx says:

    How is it even available in white?

  12. RedShirt says:

    Well, diamonds are supposed to be an electrical insulator, so it should prevent you from bridging the antennas and causing a drop in reception.

    So, Renee, is this the next TiPb iPhone giveaway? :)

  13. Emil_vivi says:

    Woa, that's too expensive! I think only the top 10 richest man in the world that would buy this kind of smartphone... For me, it's sort of nonsense kind of thing.

  14. Trulymobile says:

    Do the diamonds improve the reception problems Let's hope so :)

  15. Jonmartin says:

    I love how people still talk about the non-existant reception problem. I'm amazed at how dumb people are.

  16. imop45 says:

    yes it's so non-existent, it's making the number of people with schitzophrenia increase drastically.

  17. SockRolid says:

    Yo yo playa, you could spend 20 G's on a white diamond iPhone 4. But you'll still be a chump.

    Steve Jobs, the ultimate outta control balla, was FIRST:

  18. SockRolid says:

    Oops. That would be http://bit.ly/bxjtwj Steve binked the first white iPhone.

  19. Lime says:

    That's about as dumb looking as 28 inch rims.

  20. vzwtech says:

    I hear Steve Ballmer bought two... Cause Ballmer is a Baller!! Bill Gates will also be using it in the next T-Pain video...

  21. ChrisLuce says:

    What a waste of money!!

  22. Joe G says:

    @johnMartin

    If you have no reception problem with yours, it's likely you live in a high signal area. The problem doesn't happen while in a strong signal area. Take your phone to an area that has lower reception and you'll see. Don't be so ignorant.

  23. Trevor says:

    A few white iPhones were available on launch day at Best Buy and a couple of other retainers. Very few per store.

  24. Stephen says:

    I think tipb should find out and post everytime one of these sells.

  25. Ant says:

    Trevor - Apple hasn't made any white iPhones yet. Best Buy took PRE-ORDERS, but failed to deliver white iPhones. I know this because I was one of the few they promised a white phone, but wound up with a black phone instead.

  26. John says:

    That's friggin' cool!!! I would never buy it, even if I had the money to waste, but I still think it's pretty neat.

  27. Trulymobile says:

    Jonmartin 13 hrs, 28 mins ago 'I love how people still talk about the non-existant reception problem. I’m amazed at how dumb people are.' Suppose it 'clever' to deny they ever existed ! What planet you been on for the last week !!

  28. Jonmartin says:

    Its already been stated that the bars were never there and its a software problem regarding how the bars are displayed where have you been for the last week.
