Interestingly this happened with Nike some time ago. Their name became negatively associated with crime because people would steel the shoes and sell them because of their value.
Not quite the same though, these crimes were happening on a massive scale and even resulted in many youth deaths in urban cities. In fact there is an entire market dedicated to selling knock offs....that means mafia involvement, none the less......Because of IPOD's style attraction to say, ummmm pop fans, I don't believe it will escalate to the level of crime that Nike shoes directly saw in the 90's.
Sony's just released a 15.5-inch addition to its VAIO S Series that not only adds a crucial bit of extra display acreage, but also bumps things up to a full 1080p.
