iPhone 5 Pre-orders Kick Off in Germany

The iPhone 5, which may look like the iPhone 4, is available for pre-order in Germany

Pre-order slips will be handed out to current Deutsche Telekom customers specifically asking for the next generation iPhone, according to Bloomberg. The carrier isn’t, however, saying when the next iPhone will ship, what features it will have, or how much it will cost.

So far, rumors have claimed the next iPhone will ship in September or October, that it will have an A5 processor like the iPad, may or may not have a redesigned body and bigger display, and might have a higher resolution camera.

Apple hasn’t said yet when the next iPhone model will ship, but it seems likely that Deutsche Telekom’s pre-order offer will be used to fuel rumors that the iPhone 5 is about to launch.
