Thanks  BoyGenius, They got an official letter sent to all corporate AT&T employees.The letter disclosed that the Apple iPhone launch will take place on June 15th with the launch period extended until the 15th of July

  While the mail didn’t confirm an exact iphone release date of June 15th, we can see that AT&T is preparing for  “the biggest selling period we have seen in a few years”, because AT&T isn’t even approving their employees from taking any vacations during that timeframe.

 Below is the full email.

Subject:       iPhone Launch Period
Date:           May 4, 2007

 As previously announced, Apple and AT&T will soon debut the iPhone,
which combines a mobile phone, a widescreen iPod with touch controls, and
breakthrough internet communications into one small and lightweight
handheld device.  The new AT&T has a multiyear, exclusive agreement to
provide U.S. service for the iPhone. 

To ensure proper staffing during the product launch period, Sales personnel
planning to take approved time off are encouraged to schedule their
vacations before June 15 or after July 15 to participate in the iPhone
launch.

Previously approved vacation will be allowed where voluntary rescheduling
is not feasible

No additional vacation requests will be approved during the launch period
(6/15 – 7/15).

I want to thank you in advance for your understanding as this is likely to
be the biggest selling period we have seen in a few years.

Happy Selling,
