The Mystery Of The Shadowy Number 5 In The Apple September 12th Invite

20120904-231202.jpg

Earlier today, I wrote an article about the upcoming Apple Event on September 12th.

I mentioned that, perhaps, the shadowed reflection of the Number 5 in the media invite may not be referring to the new iPhone but rather to 5 new products.

It was just a theory but suddenly it has taken on a life of its own.

Now, it appears, that Apple may issue several new iPod products in addition to the iPhone. And, it doesn’t seem so far-fetched to think that the iPad Mini may make an appearance as well.

Personally, I found an October release for the iPad Mini a little late in the season. I don’t know about you, but I shop early and, when weighing in the supply and demand for these products, i want to make sure that my Apple gifts arrive early rather than late.

Early October would work but mid to late October would be dicey. Plus the competitors are releasing tablet products in September so why would Apple wait to release it’s new iPad Mini?

And we can’t forget the rumored refresh of the new iPad.

Yes, a 5 – product announcement at the September 12th Event seems even more plausible. An iPhone, a refresh of the new iPad, an iPad Mini and a couple of iPods. And, let’s throw in a new Apple TV as well – just for fun.

If I was a betting gal, I would place my bucks on 5 products. How about you?

Apple iPhone 5 Event: The Number 5 Never Looked So Good.

Apple sent this media invite to its September 12 event, widely expected to be the launch of the next iPhone

Do you have a birthday or anniversary on September 12th? A wedding? A newborn baby scheduled for delivery?

None of this matters. Nobody cares because the world will officially stop as Apple unveils it’s much-anticipated, sure to be record-breaking in sales new iPhone – the iPhone 5.

Media contacts were sent their official invitation with a great big number 5 on the cover. I received mine but I am scheduled for a hair appointment that day and will have to pass. Kidding! KIDDING!

So, I guess it’s safe to say that, since the the number 5 is plastered on the cover of the invitation, the new iPhone will indeed be called the iPhone 5.

Or maybe Apple is just playing with us and will release 5 products on September 12th. Now that would be something, huh?

This probably won’t happen, though. I am hoping that the rumored IPad Mini and revised iPod Touch ( which will probably combined into one product) and retooled iPad 3rd generation will be released on the first anniversary of Steve Jobs‘ death – October 5th. There’s that number 5 again!

However, maybe Apple has other plans to mark this important date. Time will tell.

All I know is this – this Phone will shatter record sales like never before. It is the last project that had Steve Jobs full attention before he died and that alone will motivate people to grab this historic phone.

And, with the implementation of iOS 6, a newly improved camera, 4″ retina display with in cell technology and more, this phone will climb more mountains and leap more hurdles than all the other phones combined.

Are you excited? You should be! We are talking ground-breaking technology here!
