Carrying iphone on the subway? ?

Question

I have a lot of songs and a 80gb ipod (almost entirely full). I want to get an iphone (8gb since i already have an ipod). My problem is that i live in nyc and i take the subway to school every day. I use my phone on the subway sometimes, but since i havent seen many iphones on the subway, i'm worried that it will attract muggers. what should i do in that case? i'm thinking just carrying the songs i'll listen to that day on my iphone and leaving my ipod at home (just so i wont have to carry them both). but is there a way to use an iphone without having to take it out of my pocket?

Answer 1

How about you don't make yourself a target by using it on the subway?
