Reports claim that Sprint is set to offer the iPhone 5 in October

Phenomenal news for any Sprint customers out there because reports are hinting to the undeniable truth that the iPhone is finally coming to the Now Network.

You heard that right folks, and in fact, reports from the Wall Street Journal claim that it’ll be none other than the upcoming next-generation iPhone 5 that will be debuting with Sprint. Specifically, it’s believed to arrive some time in the “middle” of October alongside with the iPhone 4 as well, which indicates that we’ll be seeing a lower price point with the latter.

Juicy news indeed for the sole carrier in the country to offer truly unlimited data, we’re sure that the introduction of the highly anticipated smartphone will surely test the carrier's network capacity.

Still, we’re curious to see if the handset will be sporting last-generation 3G speeds as opposed to running off their significantly faster 4G WiMAX network.
