Ipod tape adaptor
They won't nick that...

An empty personal tape player (from the 80's), that can be opened, and your precious Ipod secreted within.
The deluxe model could control the basic Ipod functions, with a press on the tape controls.
Anyone seeing you take it out of your pocket is hardly likely to be inspired to rob you (or at least there is less chance), and would also protect against the inevitable scratching.
Note, not recommended for use with the standard white Ipod headphones.

       This is brilliant! I am tempted to go home right now and build one.   

       Odds are high I never actually will (I lack - uhm, what's the word? Oh, right - ambition) but if I do, I must remember to post pictures! =)   

       Nevermind. We've been beaten to the punch. This is baked (aside from the functional aspect, which, in my opinion, adds SO much to the idea). Check out retropod.com

       And on an almost entirely unrelated note (are we allowed to do such things?), check out the SmartDeck by Griffin. Absolutely genious. Just, wow.
