replaced my first iPod (since it was an external hard drive) when my
daughter broke it several years ago.
As far as Safeware vs homeowners goes, I tend to think that they complement
each other, with each type of policy being good for different things. I
doubt that homeowners would've covered my daughter's unintentionally
trashing my iPod, but Safeware did. On the other hand, I know that Safeware
wouldn't have covered the power surge that trashed my 7yo, second-hand
laptop, but our homeowner's did.
For $70 and $5000 of coverage, I feel that Safeware is a very good bargain.
