Sources close to AllThingsD have confirmed to them that the event is scheduled for the week of September the 9th, which makes September the 12th a plausible date for the event. Reuters too has conformation from its sources about the September event.
Apple on the other hand has declined to comment on the situation but all rumours will be put to rest once the Apple Invite finds its way to our inboxes.
Recently, purported images of the iPhone 5 were leaked by a Japanese repair shop site, iLab Factory.
Whether the rumours are true or not, one thing is certain. Apple is planning something big for this holiday season. Not only is the new iPhone doing its rounds in the rumour circles, but the new iPod Touch and new iMac’s along with a 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina Display too aremake an appearance in the online rumour mills. Another device that is rumoured to make an appearance at Apple’s September event is the iPad Mini. We however are doubtful whether this device exists seeing that every time a 7-inch tablet is launched, rumours of the iPad mini start to surface. We have seen this trend with the launch of the Kindle Fire as well as with the launch of the Google Nexus 7.
To steal some of Apple’s thunder, it is expected that Samsung will launch its 64GB Galaxy S3smartphone around the same time that Apple announces the iPhone 5. Apple and Samsung have locked themselves in a legal battle over technology patents since the past year seeking a ban on each other’s products throughout the globe.
