Gizmodo reported that the gadget was found by a bar visitor in a beer bar near San Francisco on the night of April 19. The finder of the device inquired the people at the bar if someone has lost an iPhone 3G but no one claimed the device. Then the person unlocked the device and found the name of Gray Powell, Soft. Engineer at Apple logged in his Face Book profile.
At first the man tried to return the device to Powell but he got no response from him. Later a close inspection of the device by the finder revealed that the phone possessed much dissimilarity to iPhone 3G as it had a camera at its front. Then the person changed his mind and offered to sell the phone at the maximum bid and the phone ended up in Gizmodo’s Custody.
