Well it looks like my spidey-Apple sense isnt as good as I thought, with the news today from iDownload Blog that Apples SVP of Worldwide Marketing, Phil Schiller, has only gone and derailed the runaway train that is the latest rumour all about Apple planning to release a cheaper iPhone to sell in emerging markets later in the year. Despite the fact that such highly credible sources as the WSJ and Bloomberg have a recently published stories saying that a cheaper iPhone is indeed on the way, iDownload Blog says that The Next Web has reported on an official interview with Schiller in a Japanese newspaper in which he says that it is not Apples style to target the cheaper end of the market, adding that Apple is all about giving people who want integrated experiences premium products. So there! If the interview is to be believed, and The Next Web has had its veracity confirmed by Apple, talk of a cheaper iPhone with fewer features appears to be way wide of the mark.
