iPhone 5 - It's Almost Here

The wait is over!! Apple's PR department has sent emails to the media inviting them to an "invitation-only" event in San Francisco on Wednesday, 12th September 2012. The event is held at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts which is the traditional home of major Apple product launches and is where it unveiled the latest iPad in March.

Just like previous invites it has a cryptic clue, the teaser shows the number 12 which represents the date of the Apple event but the shadow that the number casts clearly shows the number 5. Apple is implying that the next iPhone will indeed be called the iPhone 5.

If you haven't been keeping up with the rumours of the iPhone 5, here is a quick summary of what's been going around the Internet these past few months:

• new two-tone uni-body design
• a smaller redesigned dock connector
• 4G LTE
• 4-inch display
• in-cell technology for displays
• A6 chip
• redesigned earphones
• NFC (near field communication)

Although these are only rumours but it can be certain that the iPhone 5 will come with an improved Siri, better battery, nano sim slot and iOS 6. Besides the iPhone 5, another interesting thing will be if the event also introduces the rumoured iPad mini and/or refreshed iPod nanos and iPod touches.

Oh and the fabled iTV? Let's forget about that for a while because I don't think that is coming any time soon!
I'm ready Apple, I'm ready for the iPhone 5, SO TAKE MY MONEY!!
