Brian White, of Ticonderoga Securities, is dubious of the many rumors about delays regarding the iPhone 5. He reasons that there is a pattern of activity within the supply chain that is counter-intuitive to a delayed launch.
According to White, Apple is keeping the iPhone 5 cards close to the chest on this launch to minimize fallout in the demand for the iPhone 4, especially considering the recent launch of the Verizon iPhone.
What it seems like to me is that the delayed iPhone 5 rumors may well be a fabrication (or a controlled/allowed “leak”) set in place to prevent people from holding out prior to a possible June launch of the new handset.
