These iPad mini shells are likely fake but have a look

Apple.pro has located alleged photos of shells, via social network Weibo, for the upcoming iPad mini that is rumored to launch alongside the new iPhone Sept. 12. The validity of the photos is not clear (at best), and the shells are missing a spot for a camera as you can see above. It seems unlikely that Apple would exclude a camera from the iPad mini, especially considering there is a camera on its cheap iPod touch line. They really look a lot on the fake side to us, but you should have a look anyway.
