The iPhone 5 will be released on October 4. The current Apple board member and former U.S. Vice President Al Gore has spoken about the debut of “new iPhones (plural), quipping that it was an intentional plug” at a conference in South Africa this week. The statements of Al Gore are tied with the most credible of the recent iPhone rumors.
According to John Paczkowski at All Things D reports, new Apple CEO Tim Cook will be in charge of the upcoming event just like legendary outgoing CEO and co-founder Steve Jobs used to run events. This is also an interesting test for Cook since he's never done the big product announcement ever. The phone will be on sale weeks after Cook's presentation.

Furthermore, Apple's silence over the release of its next-generation iPhone has caused a stir about specifications of its iPhone 5. Apple is expected to power the iPhone 5 with an 8-megapixel camera, a dual-core A5 processor with a clocking speed of at least 1.2GHz and a 4-inch display. In addition, the new iCloud service in operating iTunes will be featured on the phone which allows users to get remote access of music from all computers and mobile devices. Besides, the industry speculates over the hardware features.
