I would hand it in to your local police station, as I'm sure they'll be able to trace the owner.

On some versions of the firmware, I think you could get at the contacts via the emergency call option - might be worth a look at seeing if you can do this?

you could always call up o2 and read them the numbers written on the sim, surely they record that information right?

They wont be able to give you any information though or it would be a breach of DPA.

Well I wasn't expecting them to give out the owners address and phone number. They will be able to tell the OP what to do, no doubt it's been reported missing/stolen.

I once found a phone when doing a paper round as a young teenager, cracked and broken by the side of the road. I turned it on to see if there was a "home" number to contact and within minutes had had an abusive call accusing me of nicking it. If I saw a phone like that again I'd just walk past.

I highly doubt he or she wants to give to the police or trace the owners. Its a £500 phone and the only thought running in his/her head is "how do I make this work".
I just hope the owner had insurance! |

I just hope the owner had insurance! Would be blocked now by network if reported lost/stolen so only use is a paperweight.
