According to multiple reports, an AT&T VP has confirmed an October release date for the iPhone 5.
The executive is said to have told managers that stores will get increasingly busy in the next 30 to 50 days, tasking them to prepare their teams in anticipation.
Apple sources have also told multiple publications that the next 60 days will be extremely busy, without citing why.
There has been unlimited speculation on when the iPhone 5 would be released after the company launched the iPhone 4 for Verizon in February, breaking its customary June cycle for new releases.
For now, October seems like the strongest bet for the release of the iPhone 5, and potentially a cloud-based iPhone 4S.
