I dont know for sure, but if you use that iPhone 4g snafu over the guy leaving the iPhone prototype at a bar, someone finding it and selling it ect. Regardless it is their property and they have the right to protect it. Like the guy who found and sold the phone is under a bit of heat by the local authorities for it. He did not sign anything either, he just found it, but it goes to show that 'finders keepers' doesn't mean jack.

Same thing here and with mmo-c
