The iPhone 5 will be released on the weekend that the iPod celebrates its 10th birthday, according to new rumours.
Do you remember that story about the iPhone 5 being released on September 5th? Well, that was yesterday and, as you might have noticed, Apple has not released the iPhone 5. Or even announced it.
That means weââ¬â¢re in the market for a new rumour. The Guardian has put its money on a September release but the clock is ticking on that prediction. Meanwhile, AllThingsD says itââ¬â¢s certain to be October.
The latest rumoured date is October 21, based on what appears to be a leaked note from a branch of Best Buy in the US, which schedules an ââ¬ÅApple fixture installationââ¬Â for 6am on that day.
Update: However, MacRumors, an Apple blog, says that Best Buy's installation relates to nothing more than an upgrade to the in-store iPad display and not the launch date of the new iPhone.
Though nothing official has been confirmed about the iPhone 5, there are various rumours about its specifications based on leaks from Asia, where the phone is assembled. It is thought that the handset will have a slightly larger screen than its predecessor, a faster processor - the same A5 chip that powers the iPad 2 - and a better camera.
