iphone51

This isn't a new piece of information, but Digitimes reiterates a previous claim that Pegatron will begin shipping the iPhone 5 in September.

Pegatron Technology has landed orders for 10 million units of iPhone 5 to become the second ODM of the smartphone. Shipments will start in September, according to industry sources.

The most recent rumors have suggested that Apple will not be launching the iPhone 5 until October, though they will presumably have to start ramping production prior to that date.

Love it how Apple keeps information secret. If some source would be telling…

Apple discontinues smartphone development
…this prediction would be as "true" as any of the recent rumors. There isn't ANY official or inofficial evidence of the opposite, is it?

No, Apple.

Take your time. Get it right.

(Oh, and have a longer production ramp so you have more inventory at launch.)

I would not be surprised if this is Apple's doing. Purposely sending out tons of misinformation to confuse everyone.

I'll raise you: Smarch 38th. I guarantee it.
