As time passes, more and more information regarding the apparent upcoming launch of the iPhone 5 arises. Unfortunately, none of the information coming out is official. So far, the tech world has been bombarded with rumors from different sources and no comment from Apple. While some sources are far from believable and mostly hide behind anonymity, others give information which seems more plausible. An example of the latter is the latest from AT&T. It seems that the carrier is currently preparing for the eagerly awaited launch of the latest Apple phone.
Apparently, AT&T management has required retailers to finish any employee training as quickly as possible and be ready for the supposed high client influx coming in September. More than that, there is information which points to Apple looking to hire additional Apple store personnel in order to cope with the predicted deluge when the device finally comes out.
As has been the case in the past period however, this is still unofficial. While the sources inside AT&T which leaked the information are trust-worthy, an official announcement to confirm couldnt hurt.
This corroborates the ever-growing rumors which indicate that the iPhone 5 will be announced in August, with a September launch date. These prior retailer preparations also confirm that Apple is bracing for huge success and accompanying sales of the new phone
