While rumors of the salt and pepper colored iPhone 3G pair reigned true, it is now time to look toward the emergence of yet another addition to the team. MacBlogz has learned through an unconfirmed source that a possible red iPhone 3G may be slated for a holiday release in attempts to boost sales.
With the iPhone 3G’s recent transition to a plastic casing, it would not seem difficult for Apple to add colors as they wish. The festive colored iPhone 3G would also serve as a (PRODUCT) RED offering, which donates a percentage of profits to anti-retroviral medicine to help fight HIV/AIDS in Africa.
Apple has already been on board with the (PRODUCT) RED campaign, offering a special edition 8GB iPod nano and 1GB iPod shuffle to the cause. They have also released a (PRODUCT) RED iTunes gift card that donates 10% of proceeds.
I for one, would certainly invite the addition of more colors to the iPhone 3G line. Come the holiday season Apple might have everyone seeing red.

I don’t think the color matters anyway….Everyone has to put a case on the device to protect it.

Seriously, this is an altered image using a program such as Photoshop. I can make you all a green one, too, if you want it. Haha.

I think the fact that you have to point out that this is fake is pretty funny slugoo. Like, were you confused at first and that it was real? And then realized it was fake and decided to let everyone know that they were wrong in thinking it was real, cause you thought it was real at first?
HAHAH, either way man. You think that Macbook Touch photo was real? Well, neither is this one. Kinda understood with the territory.

By the way, who’s this so called “unconfirmed source” and have they ever proven anything right in the past ?
What’s to say this isn’t merely a prediction?

I personally have been holding out for this ever since the rumored color pallets for the case makers included red. However, I would sure prefer that red over the one here… The darker color would be more consistent with other (PRODUCT) RED devices anyway.
And possibly in 32GB?? One can always hope.
