Chinese Counterfeiters Get the Jump on iPhone 5

China's well-known market for counterfeit goods, electronic and otherwise, has upped the ante: Now you can get knock-offs of products that haven't even been publicly revealed yet.  As Mashable points out, a Chinese company called "Goophone" is advertising a device that it calls the "iphone 5."  The actual iPhone 5 -- the real one, the one made by Apple -- has not been released yet. And even though the Internet is rife with images of mock-ups and supposedly leaked parts, Apple hasn't officially shown the world what the real device will look like.  One safe bet for the real iPhone 5: It most probably will not run Android, like this Goophone does.
