Well, if the letter is genuine, that confirms its the iPhone 4. Its like when a celebrity sex tape comes out and theres no denial, just a cease & decist letter.

as much as i enjoyed the sneak peak, i hope apple goes after everyone involved with this leak!

this is NOT OK! and if nothing is done im sure every big release will be mysteriously found at a bar

again! its NOT OK to find shiiks and take possession of it solely cause "you found it" you should try and track down its owner and do whats right! and especially not sell it to a tech blog for 5 thousand bucks

its wrong and THEY ALL KNEW IT

unless its cold hard cash... KEEP THAT SHIINKLE

<--- btw look at my location

actually I think Gizmodo are a bunch of world class douchebags.

Its one thing to buy the iphone this poor guy lost, they knew it was real, they could have just said it was lost by an employee at a bar and left it at that, Obviously Apple would already know who it was and the guy was in enough deep ****.

But to identify the guy by first and last name, posting things they found on his phone AND, posting his profile pic from his facebook account?

This public humiliation and character assassination is absolutely illogical, it brought NOTHING else to the story of the iphone getting leaked. This guy is certainly going to lose his job at apple, now they went ahead and possible ruined this guy career for no other reason than to adding insult to injury.

Real ****ing classy.

I hope this backfires on Gizmodo so that no one else will ever want to leak anything to them since theyre now going to be known as the TMZ tabloid *** holes of the tech industry that will screw anyone over fir a juicy story.
