Hardware requirements: “Currently i2 electronics manufactures iLOCKr(s) for all iPod nano(s), minis, 20gb photo, 20gb click wheel and the U2 Special Edition, 30gb video and 60gb video. Each iLOCKr is clearly marked for it's compatible iPod.”

Description of program:“ i2 electronics (“i2e”) is engaged in the manufacturing, distribution and sales of computer and consumer electronic Anti-Theft Security and Protection Cases and Devices. By virtue of these innovative PATENTED product lines for iPods, Laptop computers and other personal electronic devices, i2e has partnered EXCLUSIVELY with Ingram Micro (the world’s largest electronic distributor with over $32 billion in sales annually; www.ingrammicro.com) in supplying these products to the corporate and consumer electronic marketplaces.“

Strengths: The iLOCKr is available in black, white, pink, outrageous green, and camouflage and it covered with a scratch preventative covering. The iLOCKr is not heavy since it is constructed of lightweight aircraft aluminum for durability. It also provides accessibility to all iPod ports and docking station.

Weakness & Limitations: The only weakness I found was the trouble I had configuring the lock. The mechanism for changing the combination is so small it becomes a challenge.

Comments: Why not destress your life? Try this very handy gadget that allows the user to be assured that their iPod won’t sprout wings and fly away when their back is turned. Therefore, be in control of your iPod’s safety and use iLOCKr to secure the iPod to your backpak, beltloop, office desk, or just about anywhere you want.
 As an artist, I find myself in some very preccarious situations when I paint or take photographs. I have lost cameras and paintings in rivers, rock crevices, and other hard to believe places. Now with the help of iLOCKr, my iPod will be safely locked to a belt loop or my painting tackle box.
