The pawn store standard sounds about right - with the note that this store then tracked down who they thought was the rightful owner and returned it upon written confirmation.

As to Powell, he sure took his time putting in that theft claim.

As to who cares? I'm not vested in any of this, I just find it really interesting! No fanboy, but I do know a cool phone when I see it, and look
forward to handling this one. I just hope I don't need written documentation of ownership before I handle one in the store!
