There is some potentially disappointing news today for those hoping that the Apple iPhone 5 would land at T-Mobile USA. Speaking at an employee town hall meeting, T-Mobile Chief Marketing Officer Cole Brodman said: “We are not going to get the iPhone 5 this year.”
As TmoNews.com points out, the statement is open to some interpretation. It asks: “Does that mean an iPhone 4/4S is coming to T-Mobile this year or is a deal in place for T-Mobile to launch an iPhone in 2012?”
Just yesterday, J.P. Morgan predicted that Apple would announce Sprint as a new US carrier offering the iPhone 5 but made no mention of T-Mobile USA.
Brodman did indicate that T-Mobile USA would launch two more smartphones for the holiday season.
