Following Apple's successful launch of its third generation iPad, Apple-lovers are now shifting their attention with anticipation towards the iPhone 5, with the release date ordinarily coming between summer and fall.
No precise date has been confirmed by Apple, however, experts are increasingly pointing to a June release date, with June 15 in particular being favored among a number of commentators.

The date seems to match the speculated release date of Appel's new operating system, the iOS 6. The WWDC event has been used as a release platform for new Apple operating systems for the past four years.
iPhone 5 Blog writer Michael Nace has asked, "But what about the last day of the WWDC? If you are in the camp of rumor followers who believe (or at the very least hope) that the iPhone 5 will be launched in June, wouldn't June 15 be a reasonable guess for its announcement?"
Nace also explained that an "inside source" in Asia had told him in November that a June release date was to be expected.
