Rumors have been going wild lately about Sprint getting the iPhone sometime next month. From installing signal repeaters around Apple Stores, to saying its network is ready for iPhone traffic, it almost seems inevitable at this point that the company will indeed get the iPhone.

More iPhone 5 Parts Surface, Shine Light on Design

There's been a lot of speculation regarding the design of the iPhone 5 over the past few weeks. Initially, the device wasn't expected to look too much different than its predecessor. But now there's a stack of evidence suggesting otherwise.

T-Mobile: We’re Not Getting the iPhone 5 This Year

A leaked internal document from T-Mobile says that the carrier will not offer the iPhone 5 on its network this year. Previous rumors have suggested that Apple would open up iPhone availability on all US carriers with the iPhone 5 launch this Fall, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

T-Mobile’s Chief Marketing Officer Cole Broadman has said that T-Mobile will not "get the iPhone 5 this year." Should T-Mobile customers be concerned?

An interesting image surfaced on Weibo recently, and it has been making its way around the tech blogs this morning. The photo seems to depict the guts of an Apple product, as you can see the company's logo next to the A5 branding.

A lot of folks believe that the innards belong to the iPhone 5, but we're not so sure. As most of you know, we're expecting both a redesigned handset and a retooled iPhone 4 from Apple this Fall. And we think these parts belong to the latter...

About Those iPhone 5 Cases

It seems as though Case-Mate started a firestorm with its little publicity stunt yesterday. I call it that because whether its depiction of the iPhone 5 was accurate or not, I'm sure the company enjoyed the extra traffic.

The iPhone mockups in Case-Mate's photos looked an awful lot like the iPad 2, and some folks didn't like that. In fact, our very own Jeff wrote a piece about the images. But love 'em or hate 'em, the design can't be too far off. And here's why...
