BEIJING, May 13 (Xinhuanet) -- Apple Inc. says its online stores in the United States and United Kingdom are sold out of the iPhone, an indication supplies are being winnowed ahead of the launch of the device's next generation that will feature faster Internet surfing speeds.
The Cupertino, California-based company has confirmed the iPhone is out of stock online, but added that brick-and-mortar stores run by Apple and iPhone carriers including AT&T Inc. might still have units available.
Apple spokeswoman Natalie Kerris declined to comment on reasons for the shortage and on Apple's plans for an update to the device, which is widely expected to be unveiled in June at Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference in San Francisco.
