I'm working to launch an iPad rental service for tourists in Barcelona and I want to discuss here the security implications for me and for my customers.

It'll come with unlimited 3G data plan but the sim card will have voice calls locked (just voip). I'm trying to think of a way to not charge the customers if an iPad is lost/stolen/broken but anything brilliant didn't come yet. Also, I need my customers to be safe knowing that all the data will be wiped when they return the iPad. With iOS 5 I probably could do it without iTunes, but is it really safe?

Do you see any more problems that I haven't think about?
