A few details of the upcoming Canadian iPhone 4 launch have emerged. iLounge has confirmed with the Apple Store Eaton Centre in Toronto that the store will be opening at 7:00 a.m. Friday, July 30 for device’s launch and will be selling the iPhone 4 at full price unlocked, or on-contract from all four major Canadian carriers. We were told that no other Toronto-based Apple Store is expected to alter its hours, but are awaiting additional confirmation from a second store. In addition, iLounge was told that no personal shopping appointments or pre-reservations will be offered, meaning all units will be sold on a first-come first-serve basis, and no official pricing has been announced despite recent reports to the contrary. Apple will launch the iPhone 4 in Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, New Zealand, Singapore, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland this Friday, July 30.
Update: iLounge has confirmed that the Apple Store Fairview will also be opening at 7:00 a.m., potentially indicating an early opening for all Canadian Apple Stores.

The West Edmonton Mall store also is opening at 7:00 AM. I tired to press them for stock numbers but no go.

I’m assuming the stores in Vancouver will be probably opening at 7 too then?
