An earlier report claiming
Apple intends to hold a media event on September 7th to unveil new iPods or even its highly anticipated iPhone 5 are mistaken, Jim Dalrymple of
The Loop reported on Friday afternoon. With a very solid track record to his
credit, Dalrymple says his sources indicate that Apple will not hold any
event or unveil a next-generation iPhone on that date. No information
was provided in terms of when Apple’s customary September event might
take place, however a separate report from
TiPb suggests Apple’s next iPhone — be it the "iPhone 4S” or the iPhone 5 — will hit the market on October 7th.
TiPb also reports that Apple’s third-generation iPad 3 will not launch at
the same time as the next-gen iPhone, but rather next spring, in line
with Apple’s traditional annual iPad release schedule.
