Keep iPod away from the third rail

There's an amusing story in the New York Times this morning about  a man and his iPod. Having been long separated from his companion (it had been away for repairs for a couple of months), Thomas Beller was glad to finally have his iPod back. While rushing to catch the subway, he watched in shock as the iPod fell from his coat, skidded across the floor and slipped into that small space between the platform and the train. It was down on the tracks. What happened next...well, we'll just let you read the article. Let's just say he really loves his iPod. Who could blame him?
