It looks like the iPhone is set to release on June 15th. The guys over at BGR got their hands on a nice memo that leads to some truth for a June 15th launch.

Subject:    iPhone Launch Period

Date:        May 4, 2007

As previously announced, Apple and AT&T will soon debut the iPhone, which combines a mobile phone, a widescreen iPod with touch controls, and breakthrough internet communications into one small and lightweight handheld device.  The new AT&T has a multiyear, exclusive agreement to provide U.S. service for the iPhone.

To ensure proper staffing during the product launch period, Sales personnel planning to take approved time off are encouraged to schedule their vacations before June 15 or after July 15 to participate in the iPhone launch.

Previously approved vacation will be allowed where voluntary rescheduling is not feasible

No additional vacation requests will be approved during the launch period (6/15 – 7/15).

I want to thank you in advance for your understanding as this is likely to be the biggest selling period we have seen in a few years.

Happy Selling,

I for one hope this date is true. Not because I plan to run out and get one, but just so this rumor can finally come to an end. Its been so many years since the iPhone rumor train started, its hard to imagine it coming to an end, of course once this one comes out we can just start the iPhone version 2 rumors.
