That's not a proper way of disposing of electronics. Morons.
I was thinking the same thing !
Bin does not (necessarily) = Trash Bin
Most likely it was an excess bin...probably going to be sold off to women's shelters or some other charity cause...then they can write them off as a charitable contribution. Corporations aren't in the habit of disposing expensive products without getting something back from them. Only time you'll see that is when a piece of equipment is so old that it is difficult to support and is pretty much worthless anyway.

Have watched the company I used to work with trash computers ALL the time. Doesn't surprise me that cell phones have started to fall into this. The computers get refreshed so the others have to go.
I'm over here wishing to get an iphone one day and these ppl r throwing it away just like that WTF
My company sells off all old phones and computer equipment after they scrub them of all data.
If they can't sell it, they donate it and take the tax credit.
I highly doubt any company would take a bunch of 3G iPhones and simply toss them in the trash.
