Apple Confirms Lost Device Is Its iPhone
Belongs to Apple???
Obviously they have never played finders keepers. You lose it, its not yours anymore. They should just fire the guy instead.
...
Actually, if you read the article at the main site it's technically theft because the person who found the device had knowledge of who the owner was and how to contact him.
...
It also says he tried for a flippin' week contacting Apple and got shut down because they didn't tell any of their employees what's going on.
It wasn't for lack of trying on his behalf to get the phone back.

You can't honestly think calling a call center to return a secret, prototype is going to work do you?
And it's not like he couldn't have facebooked the guy. "Hey, I found your phone in a bar" on his wall. The guy didn't try too hard obviously.

Their VP and General Counsel sent a letter to Gizmodo stating that the phone that they (Gizmodo) had attained was Apple property.

I made this phone in my basement.... I should send a letter telling them its mine
...
The article says the Engineer left the phone at the bar on his birthday. I mean, he left it... so technically he lost it. It's not like someone fought him off or used a weapon against him to steal the phone.
On the other side, I guess this leaked ruined apple's conference for june lol

So if I found someone's wallet they left at a bar and I found the person's name inside, it's still cool to keep it. Right?
...
According to California State law a person has 3 whole years to find and claim something as thier own.
...
Right. But the guy who found it SOLD the property that wasn't his when he knew the owner's identity.
...
He saw the guy had Facebook on his phone, but said blatantly he didn't "dig" for info, and a matter of a few hours later it was remotely wiped. Giz did the digging on the engineer.
The only sure fire guarantee of getting it to who owns it when he knows it's a prototype is by contacting Apple. Which he did.

Wow i just found thid car in the parked infront of your house. You went inside and left the car door unlocked... What do you mean you its not mine? I found it there!
Before you ask, yes the new version (not yet released for another 5 months) of the iphone with a working OS and extremely upgraded hardware will sell for more than the car you drive.
On a second note what is with the moral/ethical decay of our society?

This is how different of companies Apple & Google are:
Dude, this is funny, I read the full NYT's article of Andry Rubin, and he was asked how he would feel if somebody lost an Android prototype at a bar:
At the end of the hourlong chat, I joked with Mr. Rubin that his press relations colleague, who was in the room, wanted to confess that he had left a prototype Android phone at a local bar “I’d be happy if that happened and someone wrote about it,†Mr. Rubin said. “With openness comes less secrets.â€Â

I read an article last night on CNET's News website that said Gizmodo asked Apple to be light on the guy that lost it.
Ooohhh yiKes, pray for mercy for that mans soul!!!

ahahahha. i wonder bad its going to be.. beating to the death or termination...
...
I figure Steve-O has been running around Cupertino with a bat beating the crap out of employees all day today. I know the look on his face when he found out that a Proto got out would be absolutely priceless.
The visual I have is pretty damn funny too.
