It was used of committing a felony.
It tends to show that a felony has been committed or that a particular person has committed a felony.

Gawker Media Inc. issued a reaction and statement that the said search warrant was illegal because Chen is a journalist. Since Chen is working at home, his workplace is considered his office. The raid in his home is illegal under section 1524(g) of California's Penal Code.

UPDATE: The Truth About iPhone 4G

The truth about the iPhone 4G has been in the clear picture now. Gizmodo got the said unit that used to be lost in a bar in Redwood City, California.

Gizmodo list down their findings about the iPhone 4G:


What's new
• Front-facing video chat camera
• Improved regular back-camera (the lens is quite noticeably larger than the iPhone 3GS)
• Camera flash
• Micro-SIM instead of standard SIM (like the iPad)
• Improved display. It's unclear if it's the 960x640 display thrown around before—it certainly looks like it, with the "Connect to iTunes" screen displaying much higher resolution than on a 3GS.
• What looks to be a secondary mic for noise cancellation, at the top, next to the headphone jack
• Split buttons for volume
• Power, mute, and volume buttons are all metallic

What's changed
• The back is entirely flat, made of either glass (more likely) or ceramic or shiny plastic in order for the cell signal to poke through. Tapping on the back makes a more hollow and higher pitched sound compared to tapping on the glass on the front/screen, but that could just be the orientation of components inside making for a different sound
• An aluminum border going completely around the outside
• Slightly smaller screen than the 3GS (but seemingly higher resolution)
• Everything is more squared off
• 3 grams heavier
• 16% Larger battery
• Internals components are shrunken, miniaturized and reduced to make room for the larger battery

The major thing about the authenticity of the said unit is the letter sent by Bruce Sewell, SVP and General Counsel of Apple, Inc. asking the Gizmodo to return the device to Apple.
