It has been over a year since a public spectacle unfolded surrounding a prototype iPhone 4 that was lost in a bar and ended up featured on Gizmodo, the technology blog.
On Wednesday, Steven Wagstaffe, the San Mateo County district attorney overseeing the case, announced that two California men would be charged with misappropriation of lost property for not returning the iPhone to Apple and instead selling it to Gizmodo. Jason Chen, a blogger for Gizmodo, who purchased the lost iPhone and published images of it online, will not be charged in the case.
Last year, Mr. Chen was questioned in the case and his computer was confiscated by law enforcement. He feared being charged with possession of stolen property.
