Two men sentenced in iPhone prototype theft - Technology - GMA News Online - Latest Philippine News: "Two men linked to the theft of a prototype Apple iPhone 4 in 2010 were sentenced to one year of probation after pleading no-contest to a charge of theft of lost property.

San Mateo County District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe said Brian Hogan and Sage Wallower were also sentenced to 40 hours of public service, and were ordered to pay $250 each in restitution to Apple.

"We asked for some jail time. The judge considered that Wallower had served in the armed forces and Hogan was enrolled in San Jose State, and neither had any criminal record, and decided that jail time wasn't required. Someone from my office called Apple's general counsel. This is a fairly routine theft case. This was a couple of youthful people who should have known better," Wagstaffe said in an interview posted on tech site CNET.
