So what’s all this then? A company called China Ontrade is selling an iPhone Generation 4 2010 backplate with camera holes for $23.42. China Ontrade, interestingly enough, was the company that started selling iPhone 3GS screens a few months before launch.

What does this prove? Not much. Maybe they’re trying to drum up excitement or maybe Apple, in all their wisdom, is releasing the 4G model for the holidays, a highly unlikely turn of events. iPhones come out in the summer time, just in time for back-to-school, and this might be a mislabeling.

But maybe – just maybe – China knows something we don’t. How would you like them apples?
