After months of "being in talks" with China's largest carrier, China Mobile, Apple seems to have closed a deal with the carrier that includes distribution for the upcoming iPhone 5. On top of that, China Mobile is now saying that it has reached an agreement with Apple to bring an iPhone 5 with 4G speeds to its network.

All signs have been pointing to a September release of the iPhone 5, and retail outlets have begun to offer discounts for the iPhone 4 in anticipation of Apple's upcoming device.
In the US, Radio Shack and Target have already cut prices for the iPhone 4. If you're not interested in getting Apple's next generation smartphone this Fall, now would be an excellent time to pick up a new iPhone 4.
A new rumor claims that Pegatron will begin shipping an order of 10 million iPhone 5 units in September. This order would place Pegatron as Apple's second design manufacturer, and would match recent rumors of iPhone 5 production beginning overseas.
