Apple Inc. has finally circulated media invites for a reportedly new iPhone launch event happening on September 9 at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco, Cal.
"Hey Siri, give us a hint," a teaser in the official Apple Inc. website said. "Join us here on September 9 at 10 a.m. PDT to watch the keynote live."

The traditional fall event is usually dedicated to introducing Apple's new flagship products, iPhone being the most popular of them all. This year, the Cupertino-based tech mogul is going all out as Bill Graham Civic Auditorium has a 7,000-seating capacity.
Preparations for the anticipated event have begun as early as last week, and it is going to be bigger than expected.
According to The Telegraph, there have been applications filed to the local Planning Department that revealed four main windows of the building getting removed specifically for the said event. This will potentially make way for the iconic Apple logo.
There have been several speculations about the specifications of the iPhone 7 or iPhone 6S. The Week reported that upgrades include high-grade aluminum alloy for the body to prevent another "bendgate" episode. Another feature called "Force Touch" is thought to be the cornerstone of the new iPhone 7 or iPhone 6S.
In speaking with Reuters, Cross Research Analyst Shannon Cross imagines Apple injecting faster processors in the new iPhones and the release of new iPads.
Users have tried milking Siri of information about the event. And, this is what the virtual assistant's responses were:
"You're cute when you're desperate for information" and "You'll have to wait until Sept. 9. I bet you were one of those kids who snuck downstairs to open presents early, weren't you?"
Aside from the alleged iPhone 7 unveiling, Apple could also introduce its new version of Apple TV set-top box. Some reports have also noted that iOS 9, OS X El Captain and Apple Watch OS 2 are all ready for primetime release.
