UPS Employee Caught Stealing iPhone 4S

They may make that and more. But this guy wasn't a driver, he was probably some temp labor that loads and unloads the trucks. $12/hour max.

Wow, didn't know that. Learn something new everyday

I preordered and mine was stolen out of the FedEx depot.... And Verizon now says December before this is resolved.....

The other day I was thinking - Apple was probably shipping like 100,000 iPhone 4S per flight from Anchorage to Lexington -- if the UPS pilot stole the plane and landed it in Mexico or Cuba instead, couldn't they make like $50 million dollars from the loot?

A decade ago I worked at Intel. I was in a department where we were dealing with the yet-to-be-released Itanium processor (hey, hopes were high then!)

A co-worker and I got tasked with driving a bunch of processors from one facility to another. My co-worker had a brand-new BMW. As we were driving, I commented to him that the RETAIL price, when they were to be released, was sufficient that the box in his trunk was not only worth more than his car, but also more than his car plus both of our yearly salaries combined... (Launch price of the top-end Itanium was about $5000 a chip. We had about 100 of them in the trunk of his car.)

Why am I not surprised?

Could you imagine being the guy who received an empty iPhone 4s box?
