Robbed

I don't post on here as much as I used to but I need to vent somewhere. Today I came back to my townhouse to find that it had been broken into and I had been robbed. They, whoever the fuckers were, took mine and my roommates iPods. They broke 2 doors in the process and just walked out the front door. Neither of us were there that evening so we have no idea when it occurred. The other bad news is that the fucking assholes stole a lot of my cigars from my humidor and damaged a few they didn't take with them.
This fucking blows.

Anyone know if Apple's Warranty covers stolen iPods or if there is anyway they can track the iPod? I just got the iPod in June.
I filed a police report and they took down the serial number and model number so hopefully I hear some good news soon.
Sorry for the long rant, had to get my frustrations out somewhere.

That fucking does blow. I hope they find the dickless pieces of shit who did it.

Keep an eye on Ebay and Craigslist - sometimes thieves are looking for quick-sells so they can buy drugs. I had a guy steal my hockey equipment and I immediately contacted all the used sports equipment shops in town. They caught the guy when he showed up at one of the shops trying to sell my skates and I got all my equipment back.

It really sucks when that happens man, sorry to hear about it.

oh I am sorry to hear that it does blow and it is such a invasion of privacy. For some people it' much more then about the property it becomes more about how they view their personal safety how life changes. Checking ebay and Craigs list in sales for the surrounding towns is a good idea. Sometimes they take it to pawn shop or local flea market vendors for a quick sale too. Did you take out any insurance on the item to begin with when you bought it? I am not sure if you own your condo but do you have any insurance on your condo that may cover it? Good Luck!

Man that does suck. Your best bet would be to take the serial number of your iPod to the local pawn shops with a copy of the police report and inform them it was stolen, and you're offering a reward. Most of the time, they're nice enough to get the perp's info and forward it and the iPod to the local PD, where you can recover it.

I suggest you also Google "microdot", which is a form of using tiny dots with special serial numbers to mark your personal electronics. This way you can positively ID your stuff even if you don't have a serial number. The dot itself has one, and since all the dots have the same number you can track it that way.

If you don't mind me asking, how did they break in?
