After Apple announced on Wednesday that its annual Worldwide Developers Conference will kick off on June 7, one new rumor suggests the fourth-generation iPhone could go on sale immediately after it is announced.
Citing "sources familiar with the situation," Ben Parr of Mashable reported Wednesday that the new iPhone could go on sale as soon as June 7, when Apple Chief Executive Steve Jobs is expected to give the event’s keynote presentation. That would be a change from years prior, when a new handset was announced a few weeks before its sale date.
Usually it’s at least a few weeks between the announcement of a new iPhone model and the day it is released for purchase. It has also been the norm for a new iPhone to come out at the end of June or early July of each year. If this new rumor proves true, we would see the next model well within the first half of June.
Better start breaking open piggy banks and checking the funds status. 🙂
