I would think a very fast growing market in India and China (coupled with the fact they've both got huge populations) would mean a lower price would be more than compensated for by increased sales. I wonder what kind of growth the high end market is seeing in those countries.
The Chinese market is just about saturated now for smartphones. If you want an iPhone and can afford it, you will have had one by now. Again, AAPL's share is extremely small there.
As for India, again, if you have the money and wanted an iPhone you would have one by now. The growing market for smartphones in India is in the middle and lower classes. They can't afford an iPhone.
The thing you have to remember is that AAPL doesn't market itself on price.
