There's been a lot of iPhone 4S and iPhone 5 rumors over the last few days, but one of the more noteworthy ones (at least, we think so), is the appearance of a Sprint iPhone 5 in Radio Shack's inventory.
We've seen everything from fake prototypes to codenames in Apple's inventory, but so far, we haven't seen much that confirms one of the biggest iPhone 5 rumors: That the Apple iPhone is finally coming to Sprint. It's one that's being doing the rounds for several months, and now, it look like we might finally have confirmation that it's true.
Over the weekend, 9to5 Mac was sent what appears to be a photograph of a Radio Shack inventory screen that shows an AT&T iPhone 5, a Verizon iPhone 5 and a Sprint iPhone 5. Considering AT&T and Verizon have both had the iPhone for a while now, it's the mention of Sprint that has everyone talking. 9to5 does mention that this source is a new one, meaning we should probably take this with a little pinch of salt, just in case. Either way, with the iPhone launch scheduled for tomorrow, we don't have long to wait before we find out if and when the Sprint iPhone 5 is launching.
The iPhone would be a huge boon for Sprint if it can manage to secure it. According to WSJ, the company actually blamed the fact that both of its major competitors offer the iPhone as one of the reasons for its decline in subscribers. With a CDMA version already available for Verizon, it makes sense that Sprint (also CDMA) would be able to pick it up, too. Stay tuned...
