Late yesterday, a report broke on Japanese site Kodwarisan claiming that Apple will be holding its annual fall media event on September 7th. Apple for the first time is expected to introduce new iPhone hardware at the event.

But sources have now flatly denied to the well-connected Jim Dalrymple of The Loop that any such media event will take place on that date.
Reports began to surface yesterday that Apple would hold a special event on September 7 to launch the new iPhone, but that's not happening.

According to my sources, Apple will not have an event or launch the next iPhone on September 7. It's hard to say how that specific date was chosen by the sites that started the rumor, other than it fits into the timeline of previous Apple events.
Dalrymple is known to have solid sources at Apple, and has occasionally appeared to be an unofficial outlet for the debunking of rumor claims.

Saying NO to a specific media event while ignoring rumored delivery dates... Something's inconsistent here.

Make of it what you will.
 
I really hope it arrives earlier than September 7th, but with rumors about October releases, it might be later on September.

Lame, wonder what day it will be on?

Well according to The Loop, this year’s will be later or earlier than the 7th of September. :rolleyes:
 
My guess is they didnt' do it on Sept. 7th 'cause that's when Tupac was shot....

September 11th ftw!
 
It seems that perhaps Apple is having a problem with iPhone 5, therefore causing more rumors and speculation regarding just when this product will actually appear.
 
I love MacRumors and I get that Rumors is in the name, but these constant contradicting stories that are being posted within hours of each other are starting to wear thin.

In the page title it's "…rumours and news …". I'd like it to be more about news and something closer to rumors than this.
