Looks Like Apple Lost Another Prototype iPhone in a Bar
Uh oh, looks like Apple might have another iPhone leak on its hands. CNET is reporting that an Apple employee may have lost a prototype iPhone 5 at a bar. "The errant iPhone, which went missing in San Francisco's Mission district in late July, sparked a scramble by Apple security to recover the device over the next few days, according to a source familiar with the investigation." A source apparently told CNET that the phone sold for $200 on Craigslist.
If the reports are true, Apple is experiencing iPhone leak deja vu. Last year Gizmodo purchased a lost (also in a bar) iPhone 4, leaking coveted information about the new phone's specs. Since last year's incident, after which the tech company tried and failed to press charges against Gizmodo, Apple has upped its security. Reading CNET's report, however, it looks like Apple still hasn't been careful enough.
