I don't know if the story is true or not, but at least part of it rings true for me.
I was traveling through Florida a couple years ago and asked the TSA guy if I should take my iPod out of my bag and place it in the bin next to my laptop.
"Your what?" he said. "My iPod," I replied holding it up, "you know, an iPod."
"Yeah, whatever that is" he laughed as if I was ridiculous for thinking he would know what I was talking about.
Ironically, this was the same day that the 4G iPods were announced and Steve Jobs was on the cover of Newsweek (or was it Time?) holding one.
