South Korean iPhone carrier KT has said it plans to begin to take pre-orders for the iPhone 4 later this week. AFP reports that KT will be accepting pre-orders both online and in its stores beginning Wednesday. “We hope the iPhone 4 will draw a hot response from clients as the iPhone 3 did,” KT said in a statement, adding that it would hit the market some time in September. Apple has sold more than 850,000 iPhones in South Korea since the handset launched in the country nine months ago.
