my source who's a janitor at Apple says it will come next week.
Highly doubt a janitor at apple will have inside knowledge about when a beta release is coming out. Nice try though.
Got a tip for us?

I think he was trying to imply that beta 6 didn't really count since it was only 13 mb...
You mean... Now it is two jokes.
I rather think he was joking too. But in reality... oh boy.
You better hope that I know what I'm talking about and know what I'm doing otherwise I wouldn't be discussing things.
try again, you wouldn't be the first person to come around a site like this and make claims that are BS. It's the issue with forums like this. We are all just foggy faces in a crowd, able to claim whatever we want and no one can prove anything.
Kind of like that 'woman' that claims she works for the company that does QA for Apple iPhones and posted that spy shot of the new phones. For all we know, she's a 50 year old fat ugly russian guy that printed up a bunch of paper fakes etc.
And you might be a store leader (who better hope Apple's not paying attention) or you might be a 16 year old skinny, pimple covered reject sitting in the back of your lit class typing these claims on your cell phone.
Ah, good point. That would make it pretty pointless for a beta to be released tomorrow, but we'll see.
Yeah, but they don't necessarily have to have the software loaded on them right away, do they?
Here's my take:
If a beta 7 is not released tomorrow, then Apple has made sure that all major bugs reported by developers and (I think highly likely) discusses on sites like this. They feel confident that they've gotten the feedback they need, and are very close to a finished product.
Now, if that's the case, they could still (and probably would) release another beta, because, more feedback doesn't hurt, right?
Well, I'm theorizing that they are making quite a few changes/additions for the final product; things like quick reply, added features, maybe some UI changes like live weather animations in notification center, etc.
They aren't releasing another normal beta because they want to show these features off closer to the final release date.

That isn't sarcasm, it's just hard to tell if you're being serious or not and you didn't use the
.
It is not the responsibility of a computer or software manufacturer to scour random internet forums for bugs.
It is if you want to find all of the bugs. If you don't care about the quality of your software then by all means stay in your bubble.
No, they start producing iPhones at least a few months in advance because they have to build so many (hence, leaks.) But it still takes time to load it on all the phones. I think 3 weeks is the least amount of time a beta has been released before an iPhone release, so time is running out for a final beta.
