    The Internet is awash with rumors about the next iPhone, the so-called "iPhone 5." Just today there were news reports that supposedly confirmed the suspected release date (said to be Sept. 12) and noted that Apple has just created a huge spike in component orders from its suppliers.

    Does this mean the next iPhone is imminent? What about all those rumors we heard about a new, smaller dock connector and a 4-inch screen? And will it have new hardware, like an LTE radio for connecting to high-speed networks and an NFC chip for mobile payments? Or those cases that are supposedly made for the iPhone 5?

    Apple, of course, has remained mum on any and all details regarding the next iPhone, or even if there is such a device. Most stories about the mythical phone are attributed to anonymous sources, and those that aren't (like the component orders) are just circumstantial evidence.
