There was a time (not that I can recall it) when you could apparently leave your front door open without fear of finding yourself relieved of your worldly processions and when, if you dropped your wallet or purse, you’d have it returned to you without so much as a single coin or note missing, but these days, if they ever truly existed, have long since gone - and it’s gadgets such as iPods, with their competitive resale value, that are prime fodder for those with light fingers and questionable morals.
Described as portable, convenient security for your iPod, these iPod locks are manufactured from PolyCarbon strengthened ABS and vinyl covered steel and come complete with a ‘tamper-proof’ 4-digit combination lock which, barring a set of industrial wire cutters, should see your Pod still in place when swimming, commuting or working out at the gym.

The product features are as follows:
- Listen and operate your iPod while in the safety of its case
- Foam spacers included to adjust for different size iPods
- Installs and locks in seconds
- Your iPod and its music and photos are protected from theft
- Protective case prevents damage to your iPod
- Resettable 4-digit combination lock
- Vinyl coated galvanized steel cable
- Case is constructed of high-impact PolyCarbon strengthened ABS plastic
If proof were needed that, whilst humankind evolves in so many ways some things (such as base moral integrity) have been left trailing some way behind, this wholly low-tech solution to ensuring the security of your iPod is surely a damning testament concerning those who cannot and will not desist in helping themselves at the expense of others.
The iPod Lock, which is available in a series of flavours according to which particular iPod you own (and is 4th generation compatible), is now available for pre-order from WeLoveMacs for around $40.
