Our sister-site Engadget tracked down this bicycle-style iPod lock from Japan's Elecom. For about $40, the lock offers a multi-digit combination and a reinforced cable. It's clearly meant for people who want to enjoy their iPod in places that suffer from theft-by-taking such as the gym (attach it to the handles of your elliptical trainer) or the office (attach it to the heavier furniture in your cubicle). The locks are built for 5G video iPods and 1G and 2G nanos. The Elecom site is all in Japanese and it's unclear (even if you can navigate the page) whether they process overseas orders.Bicycle-style iPod locks

That is awesome, I wish I had one when my iPod got stolen from my house during a party.

You know these things don't work right?
It just clips into just inside the case where the dock connector goes - one sharp tug and it's out, and your dock connector might even be ruined.

So they don't work, and even if they did we don't know if they ship overseas? Great.
