Worker commits suicide after loss of iPhone 4G.

I sincerely hope this is some sort of prank.

I hope Apple do something about this. I wouldn't keep buying from a company that allow this kind of shit to happen.

It's real. It was on a Cracked.com list.
Old news though, I thought an older generation iPhone was stolen and the newer one was just lost somewhere in a bar. Oh and just taken to a techie magazine. And just had its details spilled all over.

I heard...that they were going to do scary shit to him because he lost it.
Don't know if it's true or not...it was on Cracked, as Retardinator quite rightly said.

Scary stuff, man...

There must have been a lot of emotional problems going on with this person for them to commit suicide over an iPhone.

This wouldn't happen at Microsoft...

If only because Microsoft's "prototype" would be a patch released as a serperate product.

On-Topic: He probably deserved it for losing several pounds worth of electronics.
