For example with a iphone or ipod the functionality can be included in the itunes software. Owner goes in program and selects block device. That device can no longer connect to the apple store. It's that simple if the device is returned or found the owner can select unblock device. Simple. Requires one database on apple's end, a couple hundred lines of code, and a check be made each time that device is connected. It is simple, foolproof, low maintance on Apple's part, and kills any incentive someone has to rob or kill you for that device.
