Apple.pro has posted a photo claiming to be of the dock connector and cable for the iPhone 5.
MacRumors notes that "the part is nearly identical to the corresponding part found in the current iPhone, with the main exception of a slightly narrower connector and cable where the part connects to the device's main board. The connector carries a part number of 821-1300-02, compared to 821-1281-A for the Verizon iPhone and 821-1093-A for the original iPhone 4."
If the part is legitimate it would it suggest that Apple is not switching to micro-USB connectivity for its devices and will likely just include an adapter to satisfy the European Commission's universal charger standard.
