Gadget Theft: Recover Stolen iPods, USB Flash Drives, Digital Cameras and other Devices

This looks like a rather nice service which Apple should already be offering re their Ipod (Cynical me says they benefit from new sales when the old ones are stolen so turning off a stolen pod from purchasing would seem to be contrary to their interests .. now let me rant.. We have their CEO saying DRM is bad yet the company is quite happy to knowingly profit from stolen goods. Consistency doesn’t work when you Think! different)

Digital Cams, USB memory sticks and other devices rarely have such a close relationship to their makers as the iPod does so it’s frustrating to see that stealing $300 of ipod has less protection than the music on it when trying to dump it to another account.

I’m going to give this service a shot . I’d like to know how they plan on making money though:)
