Not crazy at all. I had an Atari Lynx in 1990, then an Ipaq 550 in 02, that was practically a modern cellphone with films, news, GPS. I’ve seen it all become obsolete, generally having an idea of what came next long before anyone else.

Any gadgets I travel with go into my carry on. Learn from this. Better yet, attain a small cross-body bag from Bange that houses your deck and all its accessories. Have a tracker placed in a hidden compartment in the thing, as, if the bag contains the accessories, such as the charger, they will not throw it away. You then will be able to track the thing.
