Apple announced that it will be opening its retail stores early tomorrow for the launch of the much anticipated iPhone 4. Opening as early as 7:00 a.m., Apple is hoping to be able serve Canadians who want their latest smartphone. iPhone 4 will be available without a contract for $659 (CAN) for the 16GB iPhone 4 and $779 (CAN) for the 32GB iPhone 4 through Apple’s online store (www.apple.ca/store) and Apple's retail stores.
Bell, Telus. Rogers and Virgin Mobile are also selling carrier-locked versions of the iPhone 4 tomorrow although they won't be open quite as early. Best Buy and Future Shop as well as Wireless Wave shops are expected to have the iPhone in stock although possibly in limited quantities.
This is a far cry from earlier iPhone launches which focused on Rogers, the only carrier to offer the iPhone at the time. These launches were marred by shortages and countrywide system failures that left thousands of users with iPhones that weren't activated until succeeding days.
Buyers should note that the iPhone 4 uses the new MicroSIM card format which requires you switch over your SIM card to the smaller version that fits on the iPhone.
