I am disproportionately upset, I think. But that was my commute-sanity (audiobooks are my friends) and key to my gym time -- audiobooks or music if I do the machines, or my yoga CD if I'm doing that. I mean, it's just a thing, and I was lucky to have it, but yeah. Is a thing of much badness.
iPods are one of those things that you get to really rely on. I have a hard time dealing with boredom, so mine is a great help to my ability to function at work. I have a hard enough time dealing with "Whoops, ran the battery down and need to wait an hour or so while it recharges."
Plus they feel like personal possessions in a way that money doesn't; almost like a laptop or something. Not that there's the same risk of identity theft as with a laptop, but it feels like an intrusion of that sort.
