The iPhone 5 UK launch may be the second week of September according to a new report from China Times, while the much-rumoured iPad 3 may follow in November.</div>
<div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;">
The paper cites sources at Chinese suppliers who claim that Apple has put in an initial order for 4 million new iPhone units, with suppliers already lining up 400,000 trial units.</div>

There have been myriad reports that the next iPhone will launch at what is traditionally Apple's iPod event this September; usually Jobs and co treat us to new phone hardware at WWDC in June, but the iPhone 5 was conspicuous in its absence at this year's conference.</div>
<div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;">
A September launch seems to be growing ever more likely, with 'fall' also pegged as the iOS 5 release date; however, this new report is the most specific yet and we're not completely convinced about the second week of September itself.</div>

Meanwhile, rumours that Apple will again break with tradition and launch a third iteration of the iPad towards the end of the year are also failing to die.</div>
<div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia,'Bitstream Charter',serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;">
China Times hasn't got a flawless track record on Apple rumours; it was only close-ish when it predicted an October 2009 launch for the first iPad (it debuted in April 2010) but the fact that the 2011 release date for the iPad 3 rumours prevail make us suspect there could be something in it.</div>
