We are all getting so excited about the upcoming releases... So while we are passing the time, for fun, let's try to predict some of the important dates!

Event Invitations sent out - Wednesday 21 September
iOS 5 GM/ Lion 7.2 GM released - Friday 23 September
Event date - Wednesday 28 September (Apple begins accepting iOS 5 submissions)
iOS 5 released - Monday 10 October
Lion 7.2 released - Tuesday 11 October
iPhone 5 released - Friday 14 October

What do you guys think? Where do you differ? I couldn't decide if iOS 5 and Lion 7.2 will be released on the same day or not. or maybe those release days will be switched... or of course I could be completely wrong. :)
 
All the dates sound reasonable, although I'd probably change the GM date to the same date as the event. Apple previously has released the GMs at the same time as the announcement, but then again, the iPhone is normally out in June/July. :rolleyes:

Event Invite-9/22
GM releases-Day of Event..9/28
Lion 7.2-10/10
iOS5-10/11
iP5-10/14

Invites usually go out 5-6 days before the event, normally on the thursday before.

Lion 7.2 will probably be released before iOS5 because iOS5 will require newer iTunes and iCloud support.
