The recent poll suggests that the first thing that most people want to know is the actual release date of the iPhone5. Approximately 50 percent of the respondents believe in the rumor that Apple will release the iPhone5, along with the iPhone4S, at its much-talked about media event to be held at its Cupertino campus on Tuesday.

About the design of the iPhone5, images of whose cases were earlier leaked and whose cases are now available for purchase at AT&T retail stores, 47 percent expect it to have a radical new teardrop-shaped cross-section, inspired by the MacBook Air,” while 38 percent believe it will retain a “similar shape and size to the iPhone4.”

Most people are still busy anticipating elements of the look, its features, the possibility of Near Field Communications (NFC) chip, the display and the USP of the device, while others are busy investigating the possibility of a link between Apple’s event on Tuesday and a press conference, on the same date and time, by Adobe.
