Apple working on slighter, cheaper iPhone - report


SAN FRANCISCO - Apple Inc is functioning on a smaller and less expensive version of the iPhone, Bloomberg reported on Thursday, citing sources.



The report said, the prototype device is about one-third smaller than the iPhone 4, citing a person who had seen it. 

Apple has considered selling the new iPhone for $200 without a two-year wireless agreement, Bloomberg reported. 
 
Apple is aiming to reveal the device around the middle of this year, but the launch may be delayed or canceled altogether, the report said.
