Over the past few months, there have been numerous stories on the high theft rates of the steamy iPod players. New York, LA and London have all warned iPod users about this problem.

According to reports the signature white headphones are a dead giveaway, police departments advised iPod users to use different headphones, in addition to keeping their iPod hidden.

With the introduction of the iPod with video playing capabilities, more users will have their iPod out for the world to see. This could mean more problems for law enforcement?

In other iPod Video news, I lost a reader (at least for a couple of months) over my iPod binge on October 12. Truth is I warned you guys.
