White iPhone 4 is slightly thicker
Macrumors has reported that the white iPhone 4 is thicker by 1mm than the black iPhone 4. One of Macrumors' forum members said:
"Just picked up the white iPhone 4 and realized it doesn't fit into my Incase slider case. It appears that Apple has increased the size of the plastic that borders the glass on both sides by about 1mm."
This probably is Apples solution to getting the right color of white, and so the light wouldn't bleed though.

Apple responds to the Location data controversy
Apple has officially responded to the the controversy that has surround and dominated the Apple news market for about a week now. Click here to see the full press release.
"Why is my iPhone logging my location?
The iPhone is not logging your location. Rather, it’s maintaining a database of Wi-Fi hotspots and cell towers around your current location, some of which may be located more than one hundred miles away from your iPhone, to help your iPhone rapidly and accurately calculate its location when requested. Calculating a phone’s location using just GPS satellite data can take up to several minutes. iPhone can reduce this time to just a few seconds by using Wi-Fi hotspot and cell tower data to quickly find GPS satellites, and even triangulate its location using just Wi-Fi hotspot and cell tower data when GPS is not available (such as indoors or in basements). These calculations are performed live on the iPhone using a crowd-sourced database of Wi-Fi hotspot and cell tower data that is generated by tens of millions of iPhones sending the geo-tagged locations of nearby Wi-Fi hotspots and cell towers in an anonymous and encrypted form to Apple."
In the next few weeks Apple is going to release a free software update that will:
reduces the size of the crowd-sourced Wi-Fi hotspot and cell tower database cached on the iPhone,
ceases backing up this cache, and
deletes this cache entirely when Location Services is turned off.
Apple has also said the next major iOS release will encrypt the cache on the iPhone itself.
