SW-BOX claims to have obtained iPhone 5 parts for sale and has listed and posted photos of an iPhone 5 Proximity Light Sensor Flex Cable.

The Apple iPhone 5 is rumored to launch in September 2011, and here's the awesome sauce of it...it's currently July 29, 2011 at the time of this writing and we've started selling iPhone 5 spare parts. OMG!

So you're probably asking, how did you manage to manufacture proximity light sensor flex cables when the phone itself even out yet?

The short answer. We don't just sell. We spend a lot of resources on research and intel. Did you know that the Apple factory is just a stone's throw from our offices? No? Well it is. And this iPhone 5 Proximity Light Sensor Flex Cable is the real deal.

The part is said to cost $3.77 when purchasing 5 or more units. It's status is 'Coming Soon'. You can see photos of the alleged proximity sensor part below...

This look very close to iPhone 4G model. So if this is true that means iPhone 4S is coming not 5. Because the cables are different but quite similar to iPhone 4. If it was a 5 it would have been something completely different because to design something new you have to re route everything. This doesn't look re routed

Maybe im an idiot and dont understant spare part business, but why would you want spare parts for an iPhone you dont even have yet? Are you expecting it to malfunction as soon as you get it?
