I recently got an electrical shock from a somewhat shitty lightswitch in a spanish hotel. I have used the switch before and after without problems, but at the time, I was holding my iPod in the other hand. I know there's some piezo action going on in the iPod, maybe that's what caused the shock.
Has anyone else had this unpleasant experience?

yes. quite a bit but it has nothing to do with your ipod.
it could be caused by humidity, or the lack thereof in that room.
during the winter i would get shocked all the time by a lightswitch in my kitchen, now that it's warmer and more humid it doesn't happen anymore.

what kona is trying to tell you is, next time you're going to touch a light switch while holding your ipod you should first dip the ipod in water.

if the shock was any stronger, you would've switched brains with your ipod

Aha. Strange that a less humid climate increased the risk of shock, I'dthink it was the other way around, with water being a conductor and all.
OK, so have anyone had a shocking experience WITH an iPod?

flip the switch with your nipple next time, who knows you might like it.

the only shocking experiences i have had with my ipod is seeing what i have loaded on it while drunk.

I never put a load on my iPod, even when drunk. Imagine celaning that up!
