China Unicom, the carrier expected to offer up the iPhone in China, has officially denied the report that they’ve ordered 5 million iPhones from Apple. Yi Difei, China Unicom’s spokesman, officially said that the rumors are “not true” but affirms that talks between the two companies are still on-going. Tiffany Yang, meanwhile, speaking on Apple’s behalf has disclosed that there are still no clear details as to the future of the iPhone in China. Needless to say, given this latest development, it’s now highly unlikely that we’ll be seeing the iPhone debut in China this September. This is certainly sad news for Chinese iPhone aficionados excited for the iPhone’s re;ease next month, but at least talks between Apple and China Unicom haven’t bogged down yet.
