Yesterday, a report claimed that Apple will be releasing iOS 5 to their iPhone manufacturing partners during the timeframe of September 23rd through 30th.

BGR now reports that they’ve received information from a trusted source about the specific time frame for iPhone 5 launch.

According to BGR’s source, Apple will seed iOS 5 beta 8 to developers this Friday, September 16th and will release iOS 5 golden master version on or around September 23rd.
