AT&T customers will be very sad this summer because there will be no new iPhone release. Instead, Apple's expected to release the next iPhone sometime in September.

The wireless operator is discretely cracking down on iPhone users who are tethering their data plan to other devices using jailbroken solutions. Unauthorized tethering allows other devices to piggyback off the iPhone's data plan to skip out on having to pay an extra fee.
