Report: Foxconn producing 150,000 iPhone 5 per day Foxconn is allegedly producing up to 150,000 iPhone 5 smartphones each day, in preparation for a launch in the next few months.
The manufacturer will continue to build 5 to 6 million per month until the end of the year, says Digitimes.

Although still unconfirmed by Apple as even existing, the iPhone 5 is expected to launch in October with a dual-core A5 processor, an 8MP camera, and a thinner form factor. The screen size should be still under 4-inches and the back design will move back to metal instead of reinforced glass.

Reportedly, the phone will be coming to all major carriers, AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile and Sprint.

The launch on T-Mobile and Sprint would be a first for the Apple smartphone, which just launched on Verizon for the first time earlier this year.

Wow, I have to say those are pretty underwhelming specs. I just picked up the Atrix 4G and though it may only be a 5MP rear camera, it has a 1Ghz dual-core with a gig or ram. AND... it has flash. Not to mention as a CompSci major I can unlock it and actually edit and install a custom kernal. But mostly the flash thing.

I feel bad using it in front of iPhone users though. I makes me feel like I'm jumping around in front of someone in a wheelchair...
