Yes I know I am late with this one but I had a ton of homework. So John Paczkowski of All Things D the original man who reported October 4th as the iPhone announcement date is saying that instead of the event booked somewhere else like the San Francisco center Apple will be holding the iPhone event at their own campus.
Why? That’s not entirely clear. Perhaps the release date was too much of a moving target to risk booking a large space like Yerba Buena Center for the Arts (YBCA), which has hosted a number of big product unveils in the past. Perhaps, the company felt a more intimate venue was best for newly installed CEO Tim Cook’s first media event. Perhaps YBCA was simply already booked. Whatever the reason, the world will get it’s first look at the next iPhone at Apple’s Town Hall Auditorium in early October.
The Cupertino campus is where Apple had the free iPhone bumper press conference last year. Never before has an iPhone ben announced on the California campus. Then again nothing this year is like before.
