Vodafone UK has reportedly sold a white iPhone 4 with a modified proximity sensor a little earlier than they were supposed to, according to Engadget.

As the story goes, the salesperson rang it up as a black iPhone to help facilitate the transaction, and shortly after the sale went down, Voda sent out a notice to halt sale of these gems "until next week."

MacRumors notes that "the iPhone appears to show a modified proximity sensor, utilizing an open slot over the earpiece instead of the previously-seen fine grating."

Apple is expected to officially release the white iPhone 4 before the month's end.
