In just 13 hours, pre-orders for the iPhone 4 in South Korea reached 130,000, bringing servers to their knees. This far outpaces the pre-order sales for previous iterations of the phone, the 3GS garnering 14,500 in the first day and 65,000 in the first five days during its pre-launch last year.
KT Corp, the only seller of the phone in South Korea, had to bolster their servers after the traffic of all the pre-orders crashed their services, something that anyone who attempted to pre-order the phone in the USA will be intimately familiar with.
The phone is set to launch at an undefined date in September, pushed back from the original July release.
