Rumors this morning suggest T-Mobile was hoping to spring a fresh white G1 phone for the holidays. The word is there is a problem with the white paint causing the delay. The Android phone was launched only in basic black.
Website TMO suggests the white paint is chipping. Thankfully, the faulty paint was caught by T-Mobile but the delay will push an intro until after Thanksgiving. This could push the hot phone’s sales downward as Black Friday brings out the masses in a buying mood.
The tipster originally said the white should be in stores by October 22. We’ve pushed well past that date and now we hear after Thanksgiving. Surely few are waiting for the white if they desire the G1, but T-Mobile has to wonder how this will hurt them this holiday season.
I like the white option. And hey, without the iPhone’s cracks, it could be a better deal.
