Work on Apple's iPhone 5 Ads Reportedly Set to Wrap in Early October

Steve Jobs walks across the stage, the crowd goes wild.

After a minute or two he holds up his hands and the crowd quiets down.

"Now, I've heard that you're looking forward to the iPhone 5!"

Crowd goes wild again.

"And what could be better than the current iPhone 4's screen resolution and size?"

Some wiseguy in the crowd yells, "A larger screen!"

Steve, in his usual pejorative way replies, "No, that's what our competitors are doing. No, we've taken it to a whole new level. We've removed the screen!"

An uneasy silence falls over the crowd.

A few fan boys start cheering.

Soon there is mild applause, which grows louder.

"You will no longer accidentally mistype texts, no longer accidentally open the wrong app, and we have simplified dialing by giving you ten physical buttons and TWO wildcard buttons!"

Cool-aid is handed out... Crowd drinks it... Crowd goes wild... iPhone 5 is a success... All other manufacturers start removing screens from their devices, even introducing rotary models.

No connection here. iPad 2 ads didn't air till almost a month later.

Take your time, Apple. Get it right. Only fools would want you to rush product out the door.

I'll believe it when I see it. A mid September announcement and late september availability in the U.S. is still what I'm thinking.

I certainly hope that's the case. I can't see them prolonging the release of the next iPhone until any later than the first week in October.

LOL that was a good laugh :D

I'm pretty sure Apple is going to upgrade hardware though
