Pic An eagle-eyed Reg reader has sent this shocking reveal of the iPhone 5 on a billboard in China, but it's all confused.

Is this the iPhone 5?

Is this the iPhone 5?! Oh, the humanity!

Why is Apple putting Internet Explorer on the next Jesus-mobe?

And why is it only 3G? Shouldn't it at least pretend to be 4G for some countries while actually being sort of 4G if 4G actually existed in others?

But no, it's OK, breathe. According to the reader, it's actually an advert for ice cream. Phew.

Nope.
