Several Digg readers questioned the statistic in the story, which itself got hundreds of "diggs".

Mike Maciag of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution (behind a pay wall) called airport officials for their view, and they said they questioned the study. Mike takes the "he said, she said" approach. Fair enough.

Victor Godinez of the Morning News is outright skeptical. He blogs: "I find this statistic difficult to believe....If the numbers are even remotely accurate, though, I'm surprised airports don't have kiosks selling unclaimed laptops for $50 apiece at departure gates."

A well-known writer at Wired expresses partial disbelief, but it's not his beat, so he leaves it to the blogosphere to resolve the question. "Can these amazing stats POSSIBLY be true? And all that, just in the USA?"

The entire article is about the U.S., but the writer quotes a *worldwide* figure on laptop loss! And then says "It is not known how may are quickly recovered, an institute official said." Um, how can you know how many are lost if you don't know how many are quickly recovered, as in, within 20 seconds?
