iPhones for Singapore?

According to CNN Money, Singapore Telecommunications Ltd. is planning to launch the iPhone in September. Unfortunately Singapore Tel. has refused to comment on whether or not the deal was actually made with Apple Inc.

If Apple Inc. were to broaden it's iPhone sales to Asian countries such as Singapore, China, and Japan, the company could greatly increase not only its revenue, but also its worldwide recognition (which would in turn benefit other products such as the iPod, MacBook, and iMac).

While the Asian market is on Apple's radar as a top priority, no definitive news has been released as to whether or not Apple will begin to market its products there. News of an iPhone release in Singapore is purely speculation (as per CNN, and Channel News Asia) and has not been confirmed by  Apple or Singapore Telecommunications Ltd.
