May 16, 2004 -- I-Pods and MP3 players targets of theft

Some street vendors are selling fake I-Pod headphones because having one of these hip gadgets is considered the coolest of cool. In fact, I-Pods are such a hot commodity that owners are having their I-Pods stolen even as they listen. The thieves don’t want your money or your car; just the I-Pod. I-Pods allow people to walk around with the equivalent of 60 CDs in a gadget that is smaller than a deck of cards. Clark has a Trio 600, which can also carry tons of music along with other functions. He doesn’t use it as often as some, but he enjoys it. Trios and Blackberry devices have become targets of espionage among some criminals because they carry a lot of personal information. So, software experts are working on how to wipe out this information so it doesn’t fall into the wrong hands. Watch your gadgets!

No way, that's too totalitarian.
I'm not sure.
