Before the company that actually designs and owns the product can even make an official announcement about it, everyone else has already had a say regarding the iPhone 4G/HD, which is definitely going to be shown at WWDC 10. Two Chinese manufacturers have made products for the unreleased phone: iridescent rubber/plastic cases and replacement front covers in black/white. Were these skins constructed long ago with information from Apple, or is this an example of how illegal leaks from Gizmodo and Tinhte can provide unauthorized profiteering off trade secrets? Regarding the front covers, they cannot be legal.

Hardmac writes that one of its “contacts” from China sent the image of the cases.

Meanwhile, also in China, known knock-off website Taobao is preemptively selling front covers in black and in white for the 4G iPhone. $55 is a lot of scratch for thin plastic and a strip of wiring. Good luck trying to move all 500 copies.
