In 2010, the iPhone 4 knew all along confidentiality agreements with Apple to slip when an Apple employee a prototype lost in a bar. The iPhone 4 was found by Brian Hogan, who eventually sold it to Gizmodo. After a trial on the resale of the iPhone we heard very little of Hogan, android but now he has almost full disclosure given in a Reddit AMA (Ask Me Anything ") on this spectacular discovery and its outcome. Hogan says the iPhone got when all his friends had gone home. Owned A random drunk came up to him, grabbed the iPhone 4 stool next to him and said that he had not forgotten his phone. When Hogan said not to know whose phone was the man gave the order but the owner than to find him. He looked again and saw that this is a very special iPhone was:
I noticed right away that the screen seemed to have a higher resolution than any other iPhone that time. The housing also had plastic pieces and buttons in odd places. When I removed the case I discovered an iPhone with a flat back, flat edges and a front-facing camera. On the back two barcodes were present and in place of a serial number, the iPhone android multiple android crosses. I was immediately excited, but did not know exactly what I had in hands.
A friend of Hogan called by Apple to do the missing iPhone, alert but the two were not taken seriously by the staff that they were on the line. Then they decided to contact technology blogs. Contact Engadget came over, very briefly but the two were not sufficiently aware of what Engadget wild (Seemed a bit shady '). Gizmodo was interested and eventually bought the iPhone for $ 5,000, with the promise that once Hogan would still get $ 3,000 when Apple had confirmed that it was really an iPhone. That was not like Hogan had hoped:
[Gizmodo] knew I could claim after the article was published. My money in no way I also have not asked. That while I had to hire a lawyer for more than $ 5,000. In subsequent criminal lawsuit with Apple [...] Gizmodo asked if they could take to verify the authenticity of the iPhone but then used it to make up for their own interest to Apple. Gizmodo and Gawker (Red: publisher Gizmodo) have if you ask me abuse of me.
Although Hogan's lawyer has cost more than $ 5,000, the iPhone finder says he and his friend ended up only $ 125 per person had to pay damages. To Apple The two also received 40 hours of community service and one year probation imposed. Gizmodo was not punished.
It was part time according to Hogan especially very disruptive. Prior to the trial His girlfriend had posted on Facebook android that he had found the iPhone and although after a request from him removed, the message did the press will find him. This led to some time journalists with him were at the door and he sat in a hotel to avoid. Attention with his family a week Hogan's girlfriend made it three months later because they can not handle the stress. A (female) roommate Hogan all spoke before the police and hoping for a reward:
After three weeks, the police found me. My roommate was already time to be with the police in conversation. She had told them everything they wanted to know and hoping for a reward. They took pictures of my possessions, wrote conversations and lied to me so the police could could gather more evidence.
In retrospect he thinks Hogan iPhone even when staff
