TechCrunch is reporting that a Taiwanese manufacturer has a firm date for the launch of Apple's (Nasdaq: AAPL) iPhone 5S.
According to the blog, a presentation catalog suggests that the iPhone 5S might debut in June 2013, earlier than just about every other expectation on the Street. The firm alluded to Foxconn as manufacturer of record for Apple's products.
Other items featured in the catalog include things like Q-enabled wireless chargers and dongles.
The manufacturer is said to have an inside track with Foxconn and promises "synchronization" with the Apple iPhone 5S launch.
Our take on the situation is that manufacturing will actually happen on the iPhone 5S in June for a later launch date. Photos or links to the catalog weren't available, but the catalog was said to be from a manufacturer, not retailer.
In any case, today's news also has Apple cutting orders for production of its iPad mini in the upcoming quarter, which might suggest its freeing up manufacturing capacity for another product launch in the third quarter.
Shares are about 1.7 percent lower Thursday.
