iPhone 5 SA launch date revealed

Some lazy journalism in that article.

A larger display and Long Term Evolution (LTE) support are among the features boasted by the device, though LTE is unlikely to work in SA at launch.

Hasn't Vodacom LTE been running for about 2 months?
 

And the GSM one will cover the 1800mhz that Vodacom are using.

From your link.
- The A1429 (GSM model) is the model actually intended for markets such as ours and will explicitly cover frequency bands we could use (2100 MHz, 1800 MHz – launch band, 850 MHz)

As I said, lazy or ignorant journo, does he think Apple would launch the US CDMA model in a GSM market?
