Now that we're fairly confident that we're just a few weeks away from hearing an iPhone announcement, expect the rumors and blurry spy shots to kick into overdrive.
The closer we get, the more likely it is that a factory worker or carrier executive has seen the device. Keeping that in mind, there's another iPhone 5 spy shot floating around the web...
The iPhone 5's expected launch date has changed several times over the last few months. We've heard everything from August to October, and everything in between.
Recently, however, all of the rumors seem to be settling on a late September to early October availability date. And Mark Gurman of 9to5Mac all but confirms that timeframe in this new report...
Until yesterday, I think the entire tech world had written off any chance of Apple's next smartphone supporting a 4G platform. It's a relatively new technology and it doesn't quite have all the bugs ironed out yet — not typically something Apple dabbles in.
However, a recent BGR report rekindled 4G hopes, offering up proof that carriers were testing LTE-capable iPhones. Today, Engadget has even more evidence to add to the pile. Apparently Apple Stores are installing LTE equipment, and they have a picture to prove it...
Network provider O2 has notified its UK retail stores that they will be carrying out a three-week process to swap the old iPhone displays with new ones in order to get ready for the release of Apple's next iPhone.
The news was brought to light by several MacRumors readers, and this report confirms the rumor of an early-September iPhone 5 launch.

We wouldn't know absolutely anything about a new iPhone based on Apple's behavior recently. Besides the mention of a "future product transition" during its last quarterly earnings call, Apple has been fairly tight-lipped about the upcoming smartphone.
One glance at iDB or any other Apple-based tech site, and it's the complete opposite. We've seen leaked cases, blurry spy shots, and leaked components, all pointing to an imminent iPhone 5 release...
All of the information surrounding the iPhone 5 up to this point has suggested that Apple's next smartphone will not be LTE-capable, even though the platform currently powers Verizon's 4G network, and will soon drive AT&T's.
There's been several reasons for tech pundits and analysts to write the feature off from Apple's upcoming device, but as Alex reminded us yesterday, we really don't know anything for sure. On that note, BGR just posted evidence that an iPhone with LTE is currently in testing...
Apple expects to be selling quite a few iPhones later this year, according to a new report by DigiTimes.
The site claims that Apple has ramped up its iPhone orders to a staggering 56 million units – 6 million units up on its original order...
As Apple's next media event draws near, rumors are flying left and right about when the event will take place, what will be announced, etc. When it gets this close to showtime, the rumor mill goes into full throttle. Various news sites and tech pundits share their knowledge of Apple's secret plans through unknown, "reliable sources" that always seem to be "familiar with the matter."
You probably already know this, but Apple is going to release a new iPhone soon. Some even think that Apple will release two iPhones soon. Most think that Apple's next announcement will be iPhone-centric, and the event is definitely going to take place before the holidays.
But honestly, that's all anyone knows right now. Still, let's try to clear up some of the confusion...
Here's something you don't hear every day. Multiple news outlets are reporting that two men were picked up in a German airport after an x-ray machine picked up a knife in one of their bags.
The weapon alone isn't that interesting, but what they found after searching through the rest of the luggage is certainly intriguing. German officials think they may have been one of the first ones to lay eyes on the iPhone 5...
According to a new report, the next generation iPhone, the "iPhone 4S," is rumored to be released in October, while the iPad 3 will see a regular yearly upgrade in the Spring.
The report comes from both TiPB and Japanese site Macotakara, with TiPB providing a October 7th launch date. Both sites have claimed that the iPhone 4S will debut in October and that the iPad 3 would be released in the Spring of 2012...
Earlier today, a report came in regarding the date as to when Apple would hold its annual fall media event. Japanese site Kodawarisan claimed that Apple will be holding the media event as soon as September 7th.
While Apple has announced next generation iPods in September for the past three years, a new report has completely debunked the rumor of an Apple event on September 7th...
As the announcement of Apple's next iPhone draws near, online resellers are gearing up for an influx in older iPhone models for sale.
When Apple introduced the iPhone 4 at WWDC last year, online gadget buyback service Gazelle bought back 10,000 old iPhone models the very same day, with the site buying back 32,000 iPhones total last year. Sites like Gazelle expect a larger increase in older generation iPhone sales when Apple unveils the iPhone 5 this Fall...
