So I found a cell phone lying on the road, I almost ran it over. I picked it up and it was almost fully charged. I tried to figure out the owner but the idiot didn't put a scroll message saying call this number if lost. So can I keep it? If I turn it into some police dept they will just toss it in the garbage. Calling the cell carrier without that IDME... number they can't do shit either. I suppose I could factory wipe it and get the number that way, but I'm sure the owner if found would hate that idea. Update: the phone is back with it's very happy owner. Thanks all for your ideas and moral guidance about getting it back to them.
