Mythical white iPhone 4 appears on AT&T's account management system

Like the sightings of Bigfoot, Elvis and leprechauns, the white iPhone 4 has a life of its own. Mentions of it keep popping up, yet nobody really ever seems to get a picture that's more than a blur or a fantastic Photoshopped fake.

The latest sighting emerged on BGR, where it was reported that two entries appeared in AT&T's Online Account Management system. One was for the little unicorn, the 16 GB White model, and the other was for the full-sized 32 GB unicorn.

The online account tool doesn't supply any information about when the bleached iPhone 4 will actually be found on store shelves. BGR conjectured that it might be just in time for iPhone users to jump to the white model, get locked into a new two-year contract and then bash their heads repeatedly against a wall when the iPhone 5 appears in June or July.

If I were an Apple executive, I'd announce it this week to rain on the Macworld Expo parade. What about you, TUAW readers? Do you even care about the white iPhone 4 anymore? If you do, when do you think it will appear?
