Pegatron has landed an order for 15 million iPhone 5s from Apple, according to DigiTimes. The company is reportedly set to start shipping units in September.
Due to its cooperation with Apple for iPhone 4, Pegatron, in 2010, significantly expanded its plants, human power and equipment aiming satisfy the orders for 10 million CDMA iPhone 4s; however, since the Apple's CDMA iPhone 4 sales were lower than expected in the first quarter of 2011, Pegatron shipped less than four million CDMA iPhone 4s, causing the company's utilization rate to drop to only 50% with its gross margin also drop to 1.8% in the quarter.
DigiTimes sources say the iPhone 5 does not seem to have any major updates from iPhone 4.

So because of the last part of this article I'm lead to believe that the iPhone 5 is really going to be just a glorified iPhone 4, or as some are saying the iPhone 4S. If apple doesn't do something drastic like some rumors have said it will, android here I come.
