Probably it has to do with international travellers that want to buy it tax-free? If I were visiting the states the first thing I'd do would be entering some store to check the prices of the iPods.
Or of course the ultimate saviour for the guilty always-business-travelling parent that wants to buy a overly expensive present for the kids to compensate.

The machines are the work of San Francisco-based
Zoom Systems, which calls them "robotic retail stores", and it has installed them in around a dozen airports, including Hartsfield-Jackson and San Francisco International. It has also installed similar machines in branches of car rental firm Avis, stocking mobile phones and headsets.

That's a good thing IF the prices are lower due to lower overhead costs.
Otherwise i'd want someone to rant at when my ipod goes bonckers.
lol

Good point from eastcoster, I suppose there is some kind of music download service, like iTMS, in the airport making even more profit but the first concern is how you gonna charge it as it needs 4 hours ....
