Ever since The Wall Street Journal broke the story that Apple (AAPL 0.52%) was finally ready to release a cheaper iPhone to take on Google (GOOGL -1.97%) Android and Nokia's (NOK -0.27%) Lumia line that utilizes the Microsoft (MSFT -2.45%) Windows Phone 8 OS, speculation has been plentiful. During Apple's recent earnings call, CEO Tim Cook alluded to new products and the analysts are buzzing.
