Assuming it not a dealer getting rid of evidence, what would you do?

Not stolen or other wise illegal money, perfectly legit from an person paying it forward. Let's go that route.

Are there things a BlackBerry can do that an iPhone can't? I've never bothered with either.

As for me, I'd send it directly to my investment advisor. With compound interest, I could probably use it to buy a cup of coffee when I'm 65.

my mom once took a $100 and just walked up to a lady waiting at bus stop with 5 kids and gave it to her. i'll never forget that lady crying saying how much she needed it for food. my mom still does this from time to time from what she's told me.
wish someone would just walk up and give me money.... sad

If someone's giving me $500 for no reason, they might suck my dick too, so that's what I'll ask them to do. That way I'm giving $10 back to them and the other $490 I'll spend on clothes.

or you just unlock/hack it.....easily done.....I bought an unlocked one in Bangkok, put my own sim-card in it and it works perfectly fine.....even the Apple Firmware Updates aren't a problem, once they come out you delay the update until some nerd puts the software to 're-unlock' the iPhone again on the net.....this usually takes a day or two! It is actually fun!
