iPhone 5 Coming On September 7 With iOS 5?

We’ve all been waiting for the iPhone 5, which didn’t get released at WWDC, as some suspected it might. A new rumor points to a September 7th release date for the new handset, which will be loaded up and ready to go with iOS 5.

Interestingly, the rumor also speculates that the delayed release of the white iPhone 4 was a strategic move by Apple to fill the sales gap caused by a delay in the release of the iPhone 5, rather than being an issue with manufacturing – a matter that is still somewhat controversial.

I, for one, would not be surprised to see a September release – but any time in the fall seems just as likely to me. Until a more credible report surfaces, I’ll not be crossing my fingers.
