That's interesting insight. I also thought it was the iPod that was bothering him cause he couldn't control it yet. I wonder if the show will elaborate more on this.
If what you speculate is correct, that would seem to imply that Sylar has a conscience? Despite the general ambiguity of the characters' in the show alliances (good v evil), it seemed pretty clear that Sylar was evil or at least bad-getting worse. The quest and lust for more power has further warped Sylar's mind. He certainly kills with reckless abandon and it is not just limited to people with abilities. He also takes innocent lives like the truck driver in Texas, his "torture" of Mrs. Bennet, all demonstrate a raised level of psychosis. Same with Peter. In some ways, you can see Peter heading down a similar path ala "power corrupts" etc. The guy is getting worse and revealed his dark side in his cruel treatment of Isaac.
