For my parents birthdays i have got them both iPhone 4 as they have 7 or 8 year old basic Nokia phones and they really liked the iPhone when i let them play, so well over due a new phone.

When i ordered with T-Mobile they said they only had black in stock over the phone, i notice the Orange website has only the white in stock, black all gone, and Vodafone has black as backorder of 1-2 weeks and white 3-4 weeks.

Loads of places have these on really cheap offers, have they just hit a sweet spot with the pricing and it selling extremely well? Just really surprised a 2010 phone is selling out everywhere, or is it just a case Apple don't manufacture as many at the moment.

Is Apple even manufacturing them at all? It's about time that a new model is released - like a 5S - and then the 4S will become the new budget model.

So they might be ramping down production in favour of that.

Fewer made not less!

Maybe has something to do with that rumoured glut of iPhones at the networks lumbered with a 3 year contract.(I cant see the 3 year deal the network signed with Apple being for the low end phones)

There is also that announcement (next week?) that might add something apart from iRadio.
