Apple’s much-hyped cell phone product, the Apple iPhone, is on schedule to hit the U.S. retail market in June, a leading executive with wireless carrier, AT&T, said earlier this week.

“Our expectations are good. Our testing has been good,” AT&T’s Chief Operating Officer, Randall Stephenson, commented at a business luncheon on Wednesday. “The iPhone is on target to launch in June.”

The launch of an iPod cell phone has been anticipated for over a year now, and has received special attention since Apple CEO, Steve Jobs, formally unveiled such a device in January.

Stevenson explained that more than 1 million customers have expressed interest in buying the Apple iPhone, which will by offered exclusively in the U.S. by AT&T’s wireless division, Cingular Wireless.

Mr. Stevenson could not promise exactly how many of the phones would initially be available, but said that “we got a million people waiting to buy it so we’re hoping we get a million.”

Wow, so many people complaining about a date when we know it will be sometime in June! Being near the end of the month, you can still save your pennies!
