Earlier today we heard that Apple are holding their iPhone 5 launch event next Wednesday the 12 of September, what Apple normally does is put the iPhone up for pre-order on the same day.
Apple usually launches the iPhone on a Friday, which would mean that it would go on sale on either the 21st of September of the 28th of September, but now some evidence has appeared online which points to a launch date of the iPhone 5 for the 21st of September.
I mentioned earlier today that I though that the 21st of September would be the official release date for the iPhone 5, and now some evidence has appeared online which supports this date.
The guys over at MobileSyrup have obtained some information from a retailers, which shows that an accessory maker will start selling new iPhone 5 accessories from the 21st of September.
This looks like more than a coincidence, of course Apple has yet to confirm the release date of the iPhone 5, although we suspect when they announce it next week they will also announced that it will be available from the 21st of September.
