iPhone 5 Release Date: Network Boss Leaks Launch Date

It seems as though Apple's iPhone 5 will drop in the U.S. on October 7, after the boss of European carrier Orange accidently disclosed the date the next generation iPhone would become available.

Orange’s Stephane Richard explained that the iPhone 5 would be released in France and throughout Europe on October 15. This has caused experts to infer that the device will become available on October 7, as Apple typically releases its latest products in the United States a week prior to making them available in Europe.

Although Apple has yet to confirm any details about the new iPhone 5, it is widely expected now that the device will be released on that date along with a budget version iPhone 4.
