GPS Coke Can X-Rayed

carbolic writes "WiFi-Toys.com and Engadget have posted a link to X-ray images of the GPS Coke can that has security people all up in arms. The GPS Coke can looks a little bit like an IED (improvised explosive device). The PDF file posted on security company Blackwater USA's site shows several views of the can and compares it to an IED. And for thoroughness, the PDF shows a regular can of Coke X-rayed, too."

    When I first glanced at the title I thought it said the can was X-rated.

    IUD is Intrauterine Device . I really don't think you meant that :)

    Anyway, who would put a GPS in a coke can? So you can tell where it is if you leave it on a bus???? Sounds like a stupid idea to me... nice geek project but I really don't see the point of comparing it to a bomb.
