Apple is really getting the hang of losing iPhone prototypes before launch, and we’re sure by now you're likely aware that an iPhone 5 prototype was spotted at a San Francisco bar earlier this month, causing Apple to begin an ambitious investigation to locate the lost product, in coordination with the San Francisco police, deeming the device "priceless".
