“iPhone 5″ already on sale in China?

One shorthand expression I’ve never used in an article on this site before: lol. Generally not reserved for “proper” writing, but, in this case it adequately portrays the way I feel about the most recent news. Thanks to Reuters, we have a report of an opportunist site in China already listing the iPhone 5 for sale. The image is that of a familiar concept mockup based on the most consistent rumors: longer form factor, larger display, mini dock connector etc. Just look at the price tag (that’s Chinese Yuan: approximately $1,348 USD)! It’s not all bad news though, shipping’s only $10 within China. You’d think they’d throw in free shipping at that cost, for a device that as of yet is completely fictional. Nevertheless, the site has received orders.

Is this a photoshop blunder or could this be the shape of the next iPhone. I bet there's a techie out the that could magic the dimensions from the photo. If we are odds on for a bigger screen, could this be the magic screen size? Leave a comment on my blog http://hatsox615.blogspot.co.uk/?m=1

Lol @ this article. It's for pre-order, not buy now, it even says that on the taobao page. Read it twice before posting next time.

I'm an iPhone owner and I hope that not what the new iPhone looks like narrow and long? It kinda looks stupid
