Annual invitation email goes out

Confirmed: Apple will reveal the iPhone 5 on September 12th
|

Apple has sent out its annual invitation to a media briefing for the next iPhone. Come September 12th, Tim Cook will take the stage in Cupertino and reveal the new gadget.

The invitation is, as usual, sparse and devoid of any useful information. However, the shadow on the big '12' is the number '5', which means the device will probably be called 'iPhone 5', and not 'iPhone 4X' or 'iPhone 6' or 'the new iPhone'.

If our rumour round-up is anything to go by, the iPhone 5 will feature a taller 4-inch screen, a thinner chassis, a smaller dock connector, and a nano-SIM tray. Phone owners in the US might also see 4G compatibility.
