iPhone 5 rumored for an October release.

The internet is abuzz about the latest iPhone and when it will be released. Rightfully so, the iPhone has not only maintained as one of the hottest items on the market but also one of the hottest topics. Its recent addition to the Verizon lineup and T-Mobile's in the future will put it in the hands of more consumers than ever before. Prior to Apple stepping into the cellular market palm and Blackberry dominated the early beginnings of the smartphone era with devices targeted toward the more business minded consumers. Then along came the original iPhone which proved to be a stepping stone for the smartphone market. Not only did it change a lot of people's perception about what a smartphone should be, it also introduced many people to what a smartphone actually was.

 Enough with the history lesson though, we all know what the iPhone transformed into and where it stands today. You're here to get the details on its newest edition, so let's get to that. The latest chapter in iPhone 5 rumors speculates the device to be released a little less than six months from now in October. It's said to be sporting an A5 processor which is what churns the iPad2 along. The camera is rumored to be getting an improvement to 8 mega pixels; the current iPhone has a 5 mega pixel camera on its backside. As for the actual design of the phone nothing major seems to be planned, so don't be expecting a brand new looking iPhone. Word is that Apple plans on promoting the operating system this time around, the new iOS5.

 Rumor also has it that it is scheduled to go into trial production late this summer, followed by mass production in September. That would set it up to be ready for consumers to camp out in front of stores, form lines around the block, and shutdown the internet in hopes of getting their hands on one in October. Of course like with any rumor be sure to take it with a grain of salt, and keep your eyes open as October gets increasingly closer.
