Well. "If the true owner is not known and the item is worth more than $100, then the finder has a duty to turn it over to the local police department within a reasonable time."
Because, if they returned it before they published the stories Apple would of sent a takedown notices on any articles that they would would publish. Try thinking next time.
You right, it is easy, that's why I don't get why he didn't do it. Go to the contact section of the Apple site, then look at the right side bar and it says "Corporate Address" Hell, the guy could of drove there and maybe would of gotten some Apple gift cards or something.

Apple care wouldn't know about iPhone prototypes, they would think it's a prank call. Saying "Hey, I think I found a iPhone prototype, it's square" Is going to mean shit to some one that doesn't know anything about the iPhone prototypes. The battery was dead? Yeah I guess no one at gizmodo had a iphone charger.
Yes, because they would spend $5,000 then return it to Apple before they can make there money back from publishing the articles. Right, that makes sense.
No, it's not finders keeps that's what little 5 year olds say, Calling a call center and telling them that you have found a iPhone isn't going to do much. The phone SHOULD NOT HAVE LEFT THE BAR. It should of been turned into the bar owners this is the LAW in Cali, the guy stole it by taking it home. Gizmodo bought stolen property. End.
Well considering they where there for a "few hours" already, the warrant was probably started around 7 pm, which I don't consider night. Night it probably like 9 or 10.
The phone was stolen wasn't it? I thought according to Cali law that the phone should of been handed in to the bar owners. The guy took it home, which makes it stolen.
"Governments are really great at getting together and holding meetings and conferences and glad-handing each other, but they never ever seem to accomplish anything."
That how it feels to me, But I be leave we do have some people with brains in their head that are in the position to actually do something. Lets just hope the brainless greedy bastards don't win.
This should be updated. Twitter is blocking wikileaks as a trending topic. It gets way more updates then other trending topics.

Re: they get nothing and love it
Sad thing is that we still pay more then the US and it's our oil!
When I read articles like this it makes me frustrated at what these greedy bastards are trying to do.
"Governments are really great at getting together and holding meetings and conferences and glad-handing each other, but they never ever seem to accomplish anything."
You mean they don't have any distribution centers here already? When I order something I get it in like 3 days :|
