My mobile is ancient and definitely not desirable, but just how desirable to thieves are ereaders? Do they have much of a resale value?
Might they mistake it for a mini ipad (it's in a case) and consider THAT desirable, then be terribly disappointed when they discovered the truth?
How protective are you regarding your ereaders?

I think it is more snatch SOMETHING and flee, then find out what they got.
I know friends that had Hangglider stolen from their car roof or garage. Believe me (I used to fly), 1) They require serious training to fly, 2) The colors are usually custom, so the owner is known even if it is in the sky.
That did not stop the Grab (If the owner was lucky, it was just left, undamaged, at a roadside )
