iPhone 5 Release Date A source inside Apple has indicated to Fast Company that the iPhone 5 launch event may be in the week of the September 19th, or possibly the 26th--giving a short period for pre-orders before the device is launched in multiple countries at once on a date in the first week of October (a rumor that's increasingly been believable). Speculation about the release date has reached fever pitch, and Deutsche Telecom has taken the extraordinary step of announcing a pre-order service without having official confirmation of the delivery date to give to its customers

A recent Bloomberg article entitled "Apple Preparing Faster iPhone For September" is getting plenty of media buzz. Essentially, it says the new iPhone 5, due in September, will be better and faster, with an improved camera. But the big reveal is actually somewhat buried: According to Bloomberg's sources, Apple 's also got a "cheaper version of the iPhone aimed at attracting customers in developing countries" on the way.
