According to Techcrunch, a Verizon employee confirmed that from September 21 to the 30th all employees will have a vacation blackout which probably means the iPhone 5 will be released in that time frame.    Why would they block vacations to all employees on that week other than a major release?  The only thing that comes to mind is a product that truly stops everything from moving, and that would be the much anticipated new iPhone.    Many expect Apple to announce the new iPhone on September 12 releasing it along OS 6.0 within the month.   Ever since Steve Jobs died things at Apple don’t seem as secretive as before.   More and more parts have been leaking and many have even made close to real life mockups of what Apple’s new products will look like.    Expect more news to leak as we approach the event.
