Did you even read what I said? I think GM Detroit would be the head office, but you can correct me if I'm wrong.


The guy who found the phone is a crook, plain and simple. If I found a phone there's no way I would be thinking "hey, I can get $5,000 for this thing". The guy figured out he had something valuable and threw morals out the window so he could make some quick cash.

The whole "I tried calling Apple" is BS so he can try to cover his ass for later.



As to having "Apple's people" at the house, can you people even use common sense? It's like you're implying Apple sent over a squad and invaded this guy's house. They didn't - it was the police that did. The only reason Apple would have anyone there would be to help the police identify anything. They would only be allowed to enter the house with the permission of the police, and only in the presence of an officer simply for the purpose of helping the police locate any property that was theirs.

There are a lot of circumstances where police may have additional persons come along to assist them. Getting tired of people thinking "Apple did this" or "Apple did that" as if Apple is some supreme authority that has the right to enter people's homes, have people arrested or whatever else you can come up with.


Funny how people are taking the side of the crooks in this story who broke the law. If it was a Blackberry prototype instead of an Apple one I wonder what people would say then?

REACT may be investigating if any trade secrets of the iphone were kept on his computers since they deal with high tech crimes. And for those who think Apple will lose a lot of money over this. Really? does it matter? Most people knew a new iphone was going to come out anyways. The features gizmodo found weren't groundbreaking cause they were expected in the next revision of the iphone. You don't think Apple is going to sell a shit ton of iphones when the next one comes out?

Its like saying a car company will lose a million zillion dollars this year on a certain model cause oh no! nobody will buy a 2010 cause a 2011 model will come out next year!!

identify what? the phone was returned to apple before they break into the house.

crooks? says who? you? if i am the guy who bought the phone just to return the phone to apple without report it on the internet because i know apple would want it back and if i am not putting in on the web, do u think i m will get into trouble? gizmodo is wrong on offering the money to get the publicty. but which news station wouldn't?

like i said, if jason simply return the phone back with maybe just 1-2 pictures, apple may not be so mad. but apple must be very mad when he didnt stop there and continue with all the internal picture the day after the phone was returned. why wont they go search the guy who found the phone? i am sure gizmodo have his address

that's just my opinion. but dont attack people when you dont want to listen to my opinion.

damn, out of many threads that i offer my help to people on revscene, i am not even allow to say anything because i believe the "crook?"

You're allowed to say what you want. And they're allowed to call you idiots.

I'm really not sure and I'll reserve judgement for a bit to see what all comes of this.

oh come on.. ask urself.. if you find a phone.. how likely are you seriously gonna attempt to RETURN the phone to the rightful owner.. most likely it'll just find it's way on craigslist for a small profit ~ if you have no intention of selling it, chances are you probably won't take it with you.

as matter of fact, i found lost phones twice and have returned the phone to the operator (rogers).

also, someone mailed back my lost wallet with $200 cash un touched.

maybe that's why i'd rather believe people than thinking they are all crook.

i m out.

well i dont know specifics but maybe it was carrying the newest beta firmware unreleased and although bricked it couldved been backed up somehow etc,

The long(er) answer is that there is an extremely high chance that the bartender will just sell it off anyways.
