Well, it looks like our friends in the UK have more interest for the iPhone 4 than those in France. Apple UK Store has just changed the shipping date for iPhone 4 pre-orders.

Previously it was June 24 but now if you pre-order, your iPhone 4 will be delivered on July 2 instead.

So, if you’re not in the US and eyeing to get a SIM-free, unlock iPhone 4 from the UK, you may have to wait longer or take your chances on the Apple Canada Store or Singapore which should be available in the coming days.
