As we've told you many, many times, whipping your iPhone out in public can end badly.

And now KOMO's reiterating what we've told you, just in case you didn't believe us:

Statistic show 150 iPhones have been stolen so far in 2010, and 351 in 2009 -- nearly one a day. If you include just iPods and Blackberries, it's more than seven a day on average.

"We have seen a number of these types of robberies at bus stops," Whitcomb said.

The trends show many incidents along specific routes in South and Central Seattle, but the robberies aren't limited to Metro routes.
