iPhone 5 to Launch in New Zealand on October 9th?

if that's the international launch date then possible with the time difference.

No, they always release it in the big markets first (US, UK, France & Germany). Others follow weeks after

Nope NZ had the iPhone 3G first 😛 and hopefully they'll have the iPhone 5 first as well.

Sunday makes sense. When launching on Fridays, Vodafone screws up the launch and it doesn't happen until Monday. By launching on a Sunday, Vodafone can only mess it up by one day! 😛

Must be international. Vodafone Australia would do the same thing...
