A new iPhone is coming…maybe.
Apple sent out invitations today to an event being held in San Francisco on September 12th. Based on the image included in the invitation it is widely believed to be an event which will see the annoucement of the iPhone 5.
Aside from rumours of the new device, specifics aren’t known for the new new phone.
So why is this being reported on a gaming site? More and more phones are being used less and less as … phones. I know I use my ‘phone’ for about 5% talking and 95% everything else, from email, Twitter, browsing and of course gaming.
The new iPhone 5 is also quickly becoming a gaming platform. Square-Enix in Japan has a full slate of iOS games on the horizon and the market is expanding.
We’ll let you know more about what happens on September 12th.
The typically cryptic invitation said “It’s almost here”, sported a number 12 – corresponding to the date of the event – and cast a large shadow of the number 5, a clue that the fifth version of the popular smartphone could be in the pipeline.
