West is there to add some razzle to a press event held by Apple Computer. Minutes earlier, Apple CEO Steve Jobs unveiled the iPod Nano, the absurdly tiny, unbearably sexy successor to the iPod Mini. To be fair to West, it's a tough act to follow...

Apple shipped more than 6 million of the portable music players for the third quarter - seven times the volume for the same period a year earlier - but that's not music to everyone's ears. Corporate IT managers are increasingly concerned about the dangers posed by removable data storage devices, from iPods and memory sticks to digital cameras and PDAs.
