iPad Lock Anti-Theft Security Solution

iPad Lock Anti-Theft Security Solution

Posted December 8, 2010 at 11:58am by iClarified
The iPad Lock uses a cable that attaches to a clear plastic iPad case to lock down your device and prevent theft.

The first component of the patent-pending iPad Lock is a hard, clear plastic case you can leave on for everyday protection. And since the iPad has no security slot, the case has one built in. That way you can lock the security cable to the case, and loop the cable's other end around a fixed object (like a table). Once the case and cable are locked together, thieves can't detach the case without damaging the iPad.

Likewise, the strong steel cable will discourage any thief. Weighing less than one pound, the cable is extremely sleek and its lock-head has the smallest diameter of any computer lock in the world. This makes the iPad Lock flexible and light, not to mention stylish, so you can easily pack it in your bag and take it with you wherever you go.


The product has a suggested retail price ranging from $39.95 to $79.95, and comes in three variations:
1) Stand-alone case: Custom security case for iPad
2) Security bundle: Custom security case for iPad + universal security cable lock
3) Resale pack: 25 or 100 units of the stand-alone case or security bundle

Hey, I was reading your article and comments and thought I'd put in my two bits. I wanted to secure my iPad and found a similar iPad Security Case unit for $49.99 at http://www.tryten.com/Computer-Enclosures/iPad-Security-Case , so I pre-ordered it. As well, a 'keyed different' lock can be ordered at http://www.tryten.com/Laptop-Locks/Laptop-Lock-Pro-Keyed-Different I was freaked when I got my iPad cause I know how easy it would be to walk away with one of them so I'm glad I found these! Hope people secure these things!!

that's so stupid. All the units come with the same exact key. If I ever decide to steal people's ipad's all i have to do is to buy one of these and use the keys that come with it to unlock all the ipad cases...
