Anybody use StuffBak Security ID on their Kindle or other devices?  I take my Kindle everywhere, and will be traveling to Germany for 3 weeks in May and have a fear of losing my precious Kindle and/or ipod touch.  Wondered if the id could be put on the Kindle cover or something and if it is a proven method as the website says in helping to get back your items.
Thanks!

I don't see how it's any better than putting a business card or address label on your Kindle.  It's still only the finder's honesty that will get it back to you.

Well, one consideration would be that, if you put all your contact info directly on the Kindle and you lose it. . . .some nefarious sort might find it and use that info not to return your property but to work out how he could get more of it. Cheesy  With the StuffBack thing, he wouldn't have that opportunity. . . .but an honest person would still be able to, well, get your stuff back to you. Cheesy
