A new report from Taiwan claims the new iPhone 5 will put Apple’s smartphone refresh trend back on track. The company will unveil the next-generation handset this summer, during its annual Worldwide Developers Conference, according to Daiwa Securities.
The analyst firm is quoted by the Chinese-language Commercial Times as saying that Apple is expected to showcase its new iPhone 5 at the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) held in June 2012.
Last month, a leak from the Moscone Center - where Apple typically hosts its annual developer gathering - suggested that Apple had booked the venue between June 10 and June 15.
Daiwa Securities indicated to the Commercial Times that the iPhone 5 would continue to use glass to glass (G/G) touch panel technology. The panel suppliers are TPK Holding and Wintek, according to the securities house.
People who are eager to attend this year’s event can employ WWDC Alerts to get notified when tickets go on sale - they usually get snagged in the first day of availability.
The tool is the brainchild of two developers (Anthony Herron and Aaron Wardle). Here’s them explaining how it works:
“WWDC Alerts will notify you via call and SMS as soon as we know the tickets are on sale regardless of your timezone. Whilst this isn't a fix for those at vast altitudes in metal tin cans, there should hopefully be less anxiety about leaving the house as the date draws near and the tickets are made available. You're welcome.”
Herron and Wardle promise that your details won’t be forwarded to anyone and that you’ll be contacted only about the tickets - nothing more, nothing less, adding “We don't even want to know your name.”
