Apple may be planning to launch the iPhone 6 on Tuesday, October 14th during what will be an 'incredibly busy' month for the company, according to a source that spoke to MacRumors. An internal Apple Retail Store meeting was cited as the source of this information.

The source notes that a senior Store Leader mentioned October 14th as being an "immense" day for Apple, adding that the whole month of October would be very busy for stores and the company itself. Apple is also said to planning a media event for Tuesday, September 16, coming a month ahead of the device's launch.

Previous reports have suggested that Apple would announce the iPhone 6 in mid-September followed by another event to unveil OS X Yosemite, new iPads, and perhaps even the iWatch in October.

The launch of an iPhone on Tuesday would differ from previous years where Apple has typically launched on a Friday; however, the source says that high demand and amply supply make an earlier launch possible.

It's still not clear if Apple intends to release the 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch iPhone 6 models at the same time. So far leaks have suggested that the 4.7-inch iPhone 6 is further along in the production process.

That's how soon it's going to be, how busy it takes to get many what they're after, how much to ship, the time it takes to get all this done for release, that all depends.

Did, succeeded, and has. Still this year, worth all the wait compared to plastic junk. Tim knows how to cook for you and the other youths.

I expect hundreds of people will be camping outside the Apple store for the launch.

No one is standing outside other stores so they may be getting jealous of why so many people queue up at the Apple store. Apple is the only store where people queue up for a new device; I hardly see that happen at any other store in the world. Apple gives quality products even at a high price. Bring it on Apple.

If they bring some stupid fancy stuff like fingerprint as their only new feature, imma sell my iphone5 and get fire phone from amazon.

Oh hello - July 31, 2014 at 5:10pm

Cool. Can't wait to see what they showed us during the last keynote again...

Special event was for the os, this is for the products, but the only thing that may be mentioned in the special event is the release of iOS 8 along with osx.
