hi all

I am traveling in a couple of weeks with the Ipod as a carry on to listen on plane.

I assume all is ok putting the ipod through the airport xray scanner?

thanks

Yes, it's fine to put it though and x-ray.

yea, done it hundreds of times, with my amps too

would eating xrayed candy bars harm me? it's a little late to ask now, but for future reference

Pretty sure your iPod will be fine. They might make you turn it on, but that's it.

The only problem I've had when traveling with my iPod, was on the airplane itself. One of the flight attendants was walking around to enforce the "turn off all electronic devices during takeoff" BS and noticed my iPod. He asked me if it was off, and I told him "yes". Well, he wanted to see for himself.

The only problem was, since I had just paused it, the iPod hadn't gone to sleep yet.

FA: "You need to turn it off"
Me: "You don't turn these off. You pause it, and it eventually goes to sleep."
FA: "Don't play with me. Turn it off."
Me: "I told you, there's no OFF switch."

He eventually left me alone, but it wasn't the most pleasant experience I've had.

doesn't matter, that flight attendant was just a biatch

I've put my iPod through the x-ray machine and all that harsh security several times without any problems.
