The iPhone now FCC approved (UPDATEx2)
UPDATEx2: Regarding the fake email sent to employees, MacRumors claims to have heard of an ongoing internal investigation at Apple, with suspicions towards a former employee.
UPDATE: Engadget provides explaination on why the false information on the delay of the iPhone and Leopard was published.
The iPhone has passed the FCC certification, allowing Apple to start selling the product on late June as initially planed.
"The iPhone has passed its required FCC certification milestone and is on schedule to ship in late June as planned," said Apple spokeswoman Natalie Kerris when questionned by Reuters.
Kerris also smashed recent rumours published on Engadget, claiming that the iPhone would be delayed:
"That communication was a fake and did not come from Apple," Kerris said.
Meanwhile, AdAge reveals that TBWA-Chiat Day, the long time advertising partner of Apple will handle the company's ad-campaign for the iPhone:
"People familiar with the account confirm that TBWA's Media Arts Lab will handle all creative for the iPhone, much as the agency has for iPod. The agency has handled creative duties for Apple since 1997." the site claims.
Apple's stock reached all time high near $110 on these news this Thursday.
