Does anyone know when we will be told the release date is? Not the actual release date, but the date that they will release the release date.

I'm guessing this year, in fall. But my guessing powers have diminished as I've grown older and my magic 8 ball is no where to be found.
It'll come out between September and October, along with iOS 5.
Apple has staggered the iPad and iPhone releases so that they don't eat up each other's sales.
Whoa guys, let's step back. I actually am more interested in a confirmation date that confirms that there will be an event to confirm the release of the next phone. Can anyone confirm or not confirm that?
Apple has not even confirmed their will be an iPhone 5. So no, there is no date, there is no date to announce a date, etc. It's all speculation at this point.
Just to give you a heads up...and I could be wrong, but it is slightly possible you may have missed a joke/sarcasm in his post.
This https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1204457/ is the closest info out of all the "leaked" dates I have seem due to how accurate everything else is. Everything set aside my guess is early September. 
We also won't know for certain when it is until Apple announces it, or some idiot leaves the iPhone 5 prototype at a bar again only this time with all their release data in the "notes" app

I can neither confirm or not confirm the confirmation that there will be an event or release date to confirm the confirmed release date of the iPhone 5.
I can confirm that I have not received any confirmation of any date or confirmed time.
Yeah, you're right, I thought it was the OP asking his question again. Now I see it was posted by someone else.
OK, here's another couple of questions, only serious this time.
- Does the September media event usually take place on roughly the same dates in September from year to year?
- How far in advance to they usually announce the September media event?

not to be one of those guys but why would you make this thread if that info was available it would not be hard to find
To answer your first question, the last three years the iPod event has been on September first or September Ninth.
2010 was Sept 1
2009 was Sept 9
2008 was Sept 9
2007 was Sept 5
2006 was Sept 12
2005 was Sept 7
I would paste the links but I put enough effort into this already
