“Apple” has been a favorite among consumers when it comes to mobile devices. It began its ‘post-Jobs’ era last year by releasing more number of products. Well, the good news is that products like iPhone, iPad and iPod touch met with critical success, in terms of delighting the customers. On the other hand, this delight was unsustainable because of the increasing cases of thefts. This increased to 40% by the last quarter (according to CNET, a total of 11,447 cases were reported to the New York City police between January and September of 2012, which is a rise of 3,280 over 2011). It became such a serious issue that stringent rules and policies have to be put in place to ensure the safety of devices. Government in its behalf cautioned the consumers to be aware of their surroundings.
