Are ereaders desirable (to thieves)? I couldn't imagine them being so, I am an avid reader and they are not even desirable to me .

The only run ins I have had with thieves has been a few times with pickpockets (not here in NZ, but overseas). Every time I caught them in the act, one of whom I was in a position to be able to apply strong physical and painful discouragement from ever trying it on with me again (I should add that he was a little weedy looking chap ).

In his university days our son worked in a supermarket, mostly as a duty manager which meant he had to deal with shoplifters. One day a young girl of around 11 or so was walking out with some sweets she hadn't paid for and he called out for her to stop. She peed herself with fright and stood there in her puddle crying, he thought that was enough punishment and so did not call the police to give her the fright of their authority but just called her parents to come and pick her up .
