Apple products are notorious for speculation before launch - mainly because Apple is so secretive about any of the details of a product before launch. The iPhone 5 is no exception. Everything from the launch date to the features available have had recent speculation. Yet another iPhone prototype was potentially lost in a bar - just like the iPhone 4.
