iPod Vending Machine Rakes in $55,000

According to Leopold, executive VP/owner of Business Traveler Services, one of his iPod vending machines has "done about $55,000 in a month in gross sales." For those who haven't already seen, watch a video of this machine in action after the jump.
"We put in some iPods and found we couldn't keep them in stock," he said, "We found no customer resistance to swiping a card and buying a $300 item from a machine. We're selling thousands (of iPods), and the machines at the Atlanta airport are major contributors to that."

Im quite surprised that this machine/concept actually proved to be this popular. Only proves that the easier you can buy stuff, the price becomes less significant.
