The owner of the phone has the ability to have a message appear with his contact information, but apparently has not used that option yet. Otherwise, you would see information about how to contact the owner.

If you found the phone at a business or entertainment spot, see if there is a lost and found office that you could use to leave the phone at. Otherwise, turn the phone into the police as the the owner may have filed a report that would match up with the phone.
