In the wake of the white iPhone 4’s latest delay, Apple has apparently excised all mention of the elusive white whale from its online store. In fact, the job is so thorough you might say the site has been…whitewashed.

Ahem. Previously, the site had displayed both the black and white versions of the iPhone 4, along with a notice that the white version was not available either online or for in-store pick-up. Now the white model has completely vanished, plucked from the page as though excised from the very fabric of the universe.

Apple’s announcement of the phone’s delay on Tuesday came shortly after the company updated its Apple Store iPhone app, in which a glitch briefly showed the white iPhone 4 available for sale.
