Apple has just posted another press release reminding international fans that the iPhone 4 will be available in seventeen more countries this Friday, June 30.
Customers living in Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, New Zealand, Singapore, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland will be able to purchase the new handset through the Apple's retail and online stores, as well as through Apple Authorized Resellers.
This is great news for international iPhone fans, and hopefully Apple will be sending enough stock around the globe to meet the demand. However, if my own personal experience with the UK launch is anything to go by, we may be seeing a lot of disappointed fanboys come Friday.
You can check out Apple's press release in full, below. And be sure to let us know whether you'll be attempting to purchase an iPhone 4 on Friday in the comments box at the bottom of this article!
