Say what you will about the sputtering economy. Moan, if you must, about the arid job market. The world’s bootstrappers don’t make excuses, they make tracks for wherever the action is—and these days, some of the hottest action is in iPod theft.

That’s right, today’s young go-getters are going and getting other people’s trendy Appleccesories. You can see why: It seems like every third mass transit rider packs the ‘Pod these days, and most of ‘em are oblivious to their surroundings, lost in their hipster bop, with modern sounds filling their ears and Björking up their street smarts. Thieves need only look for those telltale white buds and follow the cord to paydirt. It’s like taking high-tech candy from fauxhawked babies.

Protect thyPod with Logitech’s Wireless iPod Headphones! They use advanced Bluetooth frequency-hopping technology for an interference-free signal over a 30-foot range, so you can listen to crystal-clear audio from your iPod even though it’s safely secreted away in a double-zippered interior pocket of your jacket, or under the false bottom of your bag—or, heck, in a friend’s bag, so long as your friend stays close by. Just snap the included wireless adapter onto your iPod or iPod mini, stash the ‘Pod in your in-pants travel wallet, and enjoy convenient, (relatively) theftproof listening for the rest of the day!

The headphones boast integrated controls so you can adjust the volume, play, pause, or select tracks without reaching into your bag to tip off would-be thieves to the secure, undisclosed location of your iPod. And on a full juice-up of their rechargeable batteries, the ‘phones will work for up to eight hours, which beats the woot staff record by a considerable margin.

What’s that you say? You don’t own an iPod? You have a Rio Forge, or one of the other many mp3 players we’ve hawked on this site? Well, these headphones won’t work with any of those. But don’t worry—no one’s stealing that stuff. Yet.
