Every student and worker’s new best friend - the iPod desktop lock
Now you can listen to your MP3’s and feel even more warm and fuzzy.
The people over at Targus are about to release an iPod desktop cable lock, aimed at students and workers who like to listen to dodgy music in their dodgy environments.
Priced at US$29.99, the lock comes with a 6.5′ (2m) long galvanized steel cable, for securing your iPod to a stationary object. It works with any iPod with the dock connector, including 5G, nano, iPod Photo, 4G, iPod Mini, 3G.
The combination is a three digit number, so a determined thief, given enough time, will get through it quite quickly, but still the idea is good. I wonder how long before one with a motion detecting alarm comes out? Or maybe it can just force the iPod to play nothing but ABBA if it detects a thief at work.
