Why the iPhone 5 not on the Apple website no more?

I was browsing through the website and I was thinking about purchasing the iphone 5 thinking maybe it would be cheaper to buy since the iPhone 5s is coming out on the 20th, but I noticed they took the iPhone 5 off the website. It's weird cause they have the iPhone 4s on there and it's older than the iPhone 5. What happened with the iPhone 5?

The iPhone 5 was discontinued on September 10, 2013.
Some stores might have a few left.

The iPhone 4S is still available in the 8GB version.

Iphone 5c and 5s the same thing and Iphone 5 is supposed to be cheaper now- Only difference is 5c is plastic- but Apple knows that people are going to buy the 5 rather than the 5c so they just discontinued it for the price

They discontinued the iPhone 4 and iPhone 5, and replaced them with two new iPhones: the iPhone 5C and iPhone 5S. Unexpected, right?
