From what I read from The Straits Time, industry sources say Apple is looking to release a 'Lite' version of the iPhone 4 together with the iPhone 5 in September 2011.

The target markets of the so-called iPhone 'Lite' are those in developing countries, where a lower price point would prove more effective than piling on the technology.
This move is seen by at least one analyst as a change in market direction by Apple.
Charlie Wolf, with Needham & Company told Bloomberg that "Apple's strategy is changing from targeting 25 per cent of the global mobile phone market...to 100 per cent."
The iPhone 5 is speculated to be launched in September, "as iPhone 4 warranties run out" reports Beatweek Magazine.
It will run on the iOS 5 platform that was revealed at the June 6 keynote conference. Now I'm looking forward to new iPhone release!
