Sprint Briefs Sales Team on October iPhone 4 Launch

Sprint has briefed its sales team on the launch of an iPhone 4 in September, according to a TUAW report.

The briefing reportedly told the sales team that Sprint will begin offering the iPhone 4 in October 2011 (next month) with standard Sprint data plans; they will include a $10 data smartphone premium that is not specific to iPhone.

The associate also suggested that Sprint will carry a 4G iPad, though launch dates and pricing were still unknown. Of course, Sprint already sells 4G access for the iPad via its external mobile 4G WiFi product; maybe that's what the briefing referenced.


TUAW's source believes the iPhone 5 won't launch on Sprint until 2012 despite reports to the contrary. It's worth noting that Verizon's initial training was done on the iPhone 3GS not the unreleased iPhone 4.
