Leaked Best Buy doc says iPhone 5 preorders start this week

This week could see the official introduction of the iPhone 5, if a leaked document from Best Buy is to be believed. The retailer internal document talks about an upcoming Sprint version of the iPhone 5, which would launch in October.

The rumor mill says that the next-gen iPhone will be a dual-mode device and work on both GSM and CDMA networks so the iPhone 5 in question might just be a Sprint-subsidized unit, rather than different hardware. While the September 5th launch rumors did not pan out, there was a lot of chatter of an Apple event for Wednesday but thats rather iffy too.

Anyway, Best Buy document says "October week 1 launch" so we could be a month away from the first iPhone 5s getting into people hands. Furthermore, the doc claims that pre-orders start as soon as this week, which obviously implies an impending official announcement too.
