AT&T’s Vice President has reportedly confirmed to a number of the carrier’s employees that the iPhone 5 is “slated to launch in October,” and that it’s time to get ready for Apple’s fifth-generation device.

According to a report from Boy Genius Report, a group of managers were told that they should “expect things to get really, really busy in the next 35-50 days,” and that they should “prepare their teams accordingly.”

A September announcement for the iPhone 5, followed by an October launch, seems to be increasingly reported as the weeks go by, but unfortunately, the message passed on from AT&T’s VP really doesn’t confirm anything. According to BGR’s report, the message was that the iPhone 5 is slated to launch — not confirmed.
