According to Cnet site, Apple sent employees to pick up the device from the afternoon of August 30 and it is not clear how much the company compensates for the owner.

In early August, Carl Frega, who lived in North Carolina (USA), posted on eBay to sell a MacBook Pro laptop that integrated the antenna and sim slot to connect to the Internet anywhere with a mobile network. Topic has attracted the attention of the online community and someone paid $ 70,000 for this product. However, the topic was erased by eBay after a day of violating Apple's intellectual property rights.

Carl Frega bought a laptop from an alleged engineer who worked for Apple. He often buys old products mainly to make spare parts for electronic repair hobby. However, when I opened the MacBook Pro, Frega noticed, it integrated sim slot, antenna and tried to connect to 3G Internet but failed.

" For those who have experience with the MacBook Pro's hardware and software, it is likely to activate 3G connectivity ," he said.

According to analysts, the 3G-connected MacBook Pro laptop was assembled in 2007 under the Santa Rosa line with a red motherboard, identical to Apple's pre-production samples.
