Sorry guys this is a case for an iPod Touch update. Just like all the other "tear drop" cases that rumor sites flame as iPhone 5.

Then why does it say "iPhone 5" on it?

EDIT: Someone else already pointed this out... but I can't figure out how to delete this post.

How do we know this is for an AT&T store.... could be a retailer of AT&T, not direct company store.

These cases look CHEAP. Don't think a company owned AT&T store would buy these !!

This is kind of surprising. I wonder if ATT really knows something or are they just taking a wild stab at the wind.

Just a few more days for the press event!

with ATT being legendarily cheap they would never buy this stuff if it wasnt coming

Why not? Cheap is Ma Bell's middle name.

First off, the case's packaging looks way to fake! It could easily be a iPod Touch case! Anyone can print out a cheap label like that, then slap it on a cheesy plastic package. I'm not saying you have to agree with me, but if I saw more professional packaging in an obvious AT&T store, with multiple packages for the same case, then I would believe it... otherwise, I'm just going to wait until Tuesday

If It's an ipod touch case, it means the ipod touch is now bigger, which means the iPhone is bigger. That's not a fruitful argument.

Going to the store back until they release the iPhone 5 in the Spring...

What a HUGE letdown. Let the rumor that the iPhone5 will be released in March start swirling... I wish all the speculations would stop. I'm angry at myself for letting the hype get to me just as much as at those who are spreading nonsense.

Seriously what was the deal with these cases?

An elaborate hoax? Or did someone actually go ahead and make cases for a rumoured product? And did AT&T buy them?

That is not AT&T accessory packaging. At least for a corporate retail store.

Must be an Authorized Retailer.

I heard that too, from a very well informed source. Except his English was better.

And you believed it? Why would Apple do that?
